OBITUARY.

By C. M. Rathbun

Fell asleep, on the 5th of Dec. 1860, in the Town of Burns, Shiawassee Co., Mich., Bro. Cornelius Cole, aged 55 years 4 months and 18 days. His disease was consumption. During his lingering illness of one year and four months, he manifested the greatest patience, often wishing for the time to come when he should go to rest. He embraced the truth about eight years ago, and remained firm in the third angel's message to the last day of his life. Great was the consolation it afforded him in his last days.
He leaves a wife and children to mourn his loss, but they hope if faithful, to meet him in that land where all tears are wiped away, and the last enemy shall be destroyed. C. M. RATHBUN.
