FORD.—William F. Ford died while in an automobile, alone on the public highway, June 21, 1912, aged 72 years. He was married to Martha Ammerman in 1863. Brother Ford accepted present truth in 1907, and held to this faith until his death. His wife and seven children survive, but they sorrow not as those who have no hope. A large concourse of neighbors and friends attended the funeral service, at which the writer presented some of the comforting promises of God's Word.

BURDICK.—Herbert A. Burdick was born in Cortland County, New York, Feb. 18, 1855, and died in El Monte, Cal., June 5, 1912. He had been a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church for about twenty-five years, and for the last twenty-three years of his life held up the standard of truth faithfully in the community where he died. His wife, one son, and one daughter are left to mourn. The Methodist church, where the funeral service was held, was crowded with his friends and neighbors in testimony of their esteem.
