Obituary.

LENOX.—Died, at her residence in Gaston, Oregon, April 3, 1888, Mrs. Delia Lenox, aged nearly fifty-six years. She was born August 29, 1832, in Shelby, Ontario County, N. Y. For many years she was a member of the Baptist Church, but about six years since embraced the doctrines of Seventh-day Adventists, and until her death was a member of the church at Beaverton, Oregon. She leaves one sister, three brothers, a husband, and an only daughter to mourn their loss. A large and attentive congregation assembled at the house of worship, and listened to a discourse by the writer from 1 Cor. 15:19.
