DIED in Mattawan, Kalamazoo Co., Mich., Nov. 24th, 1857 Benjamin Allen, aged sixty-two years. In 1852 he embraced the Third Angel's Message, and commenced keeping the Sabbath of the Lord our God with others in Waterloo, Jackson Co., Mich. His friends suppose that he died of a Typhoid fever which attacked him soon after taking a sudden cold, and deprived him of life in about one week from a state of full strength and health. His brother and son removed his remains to Verona, Mich., at which place we were called to attend his funeral this afternoon.
Our prayer is that this sudden bereavement may be sanctified by the Father of all mercies to his afflicted family of children which are living in different States of the Union. JOSEPH BATES.
