By A. S. H.

Died in Johnson, Vt., Oct. 9th, 1855, of Consumption, sister Florinda Loveland, aged 21 years and six months. Bro. L. and his family were among the first who embraced the Message of the Third Angel in Vt. The hope of the christian graciously sustained our dear sister in her last days. Her trust was established in God's unfailing word; therefore she fell asleep in sweet expectation of meeting with all the saints of God where death can separate us no more. This "blessed hope," never seemed more precious than when her dear mother stood around the coffin, taking the last look of Florinda. She praised God aloud for the hope of meeting again. Said she, "We shall meet again where death can part us no more; then let our tears be dry." Praise God for the hope of the first resurrection. A. S. H.
