Obituary.

FUGETT.—Mrs. Nancy Fugett, aged 80 years and 6 months, died at Sacramento, Cal., April 11, 1886, of paralysis of the brain. She was an observer of the Sabbath, and the Signs was one of her most welcome friends. JOHN F. COOPER.
MCCLELLAN.—Died in San Francisco, April 30, Brother Samuel Elwood McClellan, aged 35 years, 3 months. Brother McClellan was born in the State of Delaware, in 1851. With his parents he removed to California eleven years ago. He became interested in the truth during the tent-meetings held by Elder Healey in Sacramento, but did not fully embrace the doctrine until after the Sacramento camp-meeting; he began to keep the Sabbath at that time. At the camp-meeting in Oakland in 1884 he was baptized, and soon afterward joined the San Francisco church. Since that time he has led an exemplary Christian life. The testimony of his father's family is, that "the Bible was his constant companion, and the truth his theme of conversation."
He died in full faith of a blessed immortality at the coming of our Lord. Words of consolation were spoken from Rev. 14:13 by the writer. N. C. MCCLURE.
