Obituary of Betsey Park
By A. S. Hutchins
DIED in Lyndon, Vt., July 29, 1862, of stomach disease, sister Betsey Park, wife of Bro. Jonathan Park, after a very painful illness of eleven weeks. Sister Park embraced religion at the early age of about eight years. She was very happy, was often found in secret prayer. Though about forty years have passed away since she gave her youthful heart to the Saviour, she never gave up the blessed hope. It graciously sustained her in her last sickness, and enabled her to fall asleep in full faith of the immediate coming of Jesus, and of rest with the saints in the kingdom of God. With her companion she had kept the Sabbath of the Bible about eleven years. May this deep affliction be sanctified to the good of the bereaved companion and daughter, and they with her be prepared to receive a crown of glory at the resurrection of the just.
