Death of Mary Fox

By H. L. Doty

DIED, near Salem Center, Ind., Feb. 9, 1863, sister Mary Fox, daughter of sister Cynthia Fox, aged 20 years, 10 months, and 13 days. Her disease was typhoid fever.

She was sick nearly three weeks, during which time she bore her sufferings with Christian fortitude. She was taught to observe the Sabbath from childhood; but a year ago last fall she sought and obtained an experience of her own under the labors of Bro. Byington. Her parent, her brothers and sister, and many friends, feel deeply their loss; but they sorrow not as those that have no hope. We pray that it may be sanctified to their good. Discourse on the occasion from 1 Thess. iv, 18, by the writer.

H. L. Doty.
