OBITUARY.

By R. Sawyer

It becomes my painful lot to announce the death of Mary Ann, my dear companion. She fell asleep on the morning of Feb. 25th, 1859, aged 25 years. She bore with patience and resignation the sufferings of a wasting consumption. She had endeavored to do the will of her heavenly Father in keeping all his commandments, and the faith of Jesus her Redeemer, and in whom she trusted for a part in the first resurrection.
The writer desires to look to Jesus for consolation in this hour of affliction, and prays that he may be counted worthy to escape the things that are coming on the earth, and to stand before the Son of man. R. SAWYER. Port Byron, N. Y., March 27th, 1859.
