THORN.—Died in San Francisco, Cal., December 21, 1886, of consumption, Sister Mary Thorn, daughter of Mrs. E. M. Thorn, aged 20 years and 4 months. During her sickness, Sister Thorn embraced present truth and with child-like faith laid hold upon the hope set before her in the gospel. When she felt the final crisis approaching, she called her friends to her side, and after earnestly entreating them to seek the Lord while he may be found, she passed away in the blessed hope of a part in the first resurrection. The funeral was held December 23, from the Seventh-day Adventist church. Words of comfort were spoken by the writer. Andrew Brorsen.
