OBITUARY.

Bro. Arad Town of Narrow's Prairie, Wis., died Dec. 5, 1861, aged 47 years. Bro. Town was beloved by all who knew him, especially his brethren and sisters who shared his counsels and instruction. Few excelled him in patience, meekness, and faith. He lived a consistent Christian, and died calmly, and trustingly breathing out his spirit to God who gave it, saying, "All is well," and sank calmly away to rest. He leaves a wife and three children to mourn their loss. May the Lord help them to pattern his virtues, and prepare to join him in God's kingdom.
Who would not wish to die like those, Whom God's own Spirit deigns to bless? To sink into that soft repose, Then wake to perfect happiness?
