Gertrude Thompson’s Death in China

By Editor

THE last Chinese mail brings a letter from Miss Ida Thompson, giving particulars regarding the death of her sister, Gertrude Thompson, from fever, in Hongkong. Sister Gertrude had been greatly comforted by seeing a number among whom the sisters were working turn to keep the Sabbath, and was rejoicing in her work. Miss Ida Thompson writes: "I asked her just a little while before if she regretted coming to China. She replied, 'O, no! I must make my work a success.'" So another young life is willingly laid down for China, and the Lord of the harvest will watch over the fruitage of it.
