OBITUARY.

By H. F. Lashier

DIED of consumption, March 31, 1862, near High Forest, Olmstead Co., Minn., Bro. Sylvester Hills, aged sixty-three years. Bro. Hills embraced the third message some eight years since, and has been earnest in presenting the truth before those with whom he has associated. He arranged his temporal affairs previous to his death, with composure. And, looking forward to the coming of Jesus and the resurrection of the dead, fell asleep. He leaves a companion and nine children to mourn their loss. May they all, like him, choose that better way that leads to everlasting life. At his funeral a large and attentive congregation were addressed by the writer, from Job xiv, 14, 15.
