Obituary Notices.

Died, in Brookfield, N. Y., March 31, at the residence of his father-in-law, Ira Abbey, of tubercular consumption, our beloved brother, William Hall; aged 27 years, 9 months, and 11 days.

The life of Bro. Hall was in an eminent degree that of the humble, consistent Christian. He feared God with that filial fear that made his life one of constant watchfulness, and his example such that it might be safely imitated. He labored in the office of the Advent Review some eight years, until the failure of his health compelled him to desist. It was fondly hoped that rest and relaxation from care might give relief. But with everything that affection could do to stay the progress of the destroyer, he sank steadily to the grave. To the last moments of his life, his mind was clear and calm. His end was answerable to his life, peaceful, serene, and heavenly.

Fell asleep in Jesus, Sunday, April 2, 1865, my wife, Sarah A. Marsh, aged 53 years, 2 months, and 23 days.

She has been a great sufferer for many years, not being able to walk for something like four years, and although she has never heard or seen one of the Seventh-day Adventist preachers, still she kept the Sabbath something like four years.
