An Aged Laborer Fallen

WE sadly chronicle the death of another aged laborer in the message, Elder H. H. Wilcox, of Potsdam, N. Y., September 1, at the ripe age of about ninety. He may almost be said to be one of the pioneers in the message, and the first whom the writer ever heard preach the present truth, attracted to hear him in part because of the same name, tho no blood relation. How faithfully, patiently, and kindly he labored with the questioning, skeptical young man, only God knows, nor shall the then young man know t'll he finds its records in the kingdom. We found him ever a devoted, humble, earnest Christian, and his bereaved wife writes us that he was ready, and fell asleep in Him in whom he trusted and to whom his life had been devoted. May he see much fruit of his labors when he shall meet them in the glad morning. The writer would add this tribute to the memory of one who was faithful to the end. There will many miss him. May God bless his bereaved wife.
