WALMSLEY.—Eunice Willard Walmsley, wife of Brother Palen Walmsley, died in Dayton, Nev., January 16, 1889, aged 27 years, 11 months, and 25 days. She was born in Amurst Island, Ontario, Canada, where she was first converted and joined the Established Church. Three years ago she married and came to this country; it was here she embraced the present truth and was baptized by Elder Colcord at the Dayton Camp-meeting. About nine weeks ago, under the labors of Elder Ings, she renewed her vows of consecration and determined to serve the Lord as never before. She died perfectly reconciled to the providence of God, and with the bright hope of having eternal life. She leaves two little ones motherless, one eighteen months old, the other but a few days. Words of comfort were spoken from 1 Cor. 15:26. FRANK HOPE.
TURMAN.—Died at St. Clair, Nev., December 28, 1888, of heart trouble, from which she had suffered fifteen years, Marrietta Turman, wife of Samuel H. Turman, aged 55 years. Sister Turman had been a member of the Baptist Church for sixteen years, and on the 26th of February, 1878, became convinced that the Sabbath of the fourth commandment was still binding; she was rebaptized, and joined the St. Clair (Nevada) church. She was one of our most devoted members, was beloved by all her acquaintances, and will be missed by all. She leaves a husband, three children, and many warm friends to mourn their loss. Words of comfort were spoken from 1 Thes. 4:13-18, by the writer. F. W. HARMON.
