“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.”
Died in Trowbridge, Allegan Co., Mich., Aug. 22, 1878, of consumption, Helen M. Foster, aged 38 years. Sr. Foster, who was a member of the church in Allegan, had been an observer of the Sabbath for many years. Through intense and long-protracted suffering as the result of her disease, death had lost to her all its terrors, and for weeks previous to her final decease she had looked forward to it as a happy release from suffering. Her last moments gave clear and satisfactory evidence that she knew in whom she had trusted, and that she had a well-founded hope of a part in the better resurrection. The funeral discourse was delivered by the writer. W. H. LITTLEJOHN.
Fell asleep in Jesus, Aug. 21, 1878, at Augusta, Mich., my companion, S. S. Bartlett, aged 49 years, 5 months, and 13 days. We laid her to rest Aug. 23, with the blessed assurance that she will have a part in the first resurrection. She embraced the third angel’s message about eighteen years ago, under the labors of Eld. T. M. Steward, at Cascade, Wis. G. W. BARTLETT.
