Obituary Notices.

DIED, in the town of Pine River, Gratiot Co., Mich., March 14, 1865, of dropsy which terminated in quick consumption, after an illness of about two months, Sr. Ellen Holliday, aged 35 years.

She leaves a husband and five small children to mourn her loss. She will be missed by her friends and neighbors; for she was beloved by all who knew her.

For more than ten years she has been a keeper of the Lord's Sabbath, and a firm advocate of present truth.

Discourse on the funeral occasion by the writer from 1 Thess. iv, 13, 14.

I. D. VAN HORN.

FELL asleep in the village of Oronoco, Minn., Sabbath morning, March 18, 1865, Marshall Price, eldest son of Bro. John, and Sister Jane Bostwick, aged 3 years, 8 months and 18 days. His death was caused by falling backwards into a pail of boiling water. This is a deep affliction to Bro. and Sr. Bostwick; but they have the Christian's hope and the prayers and sympathy of God's children to support them. He was a lovely child just learning to keep the commandments and honor God; but he has passed away to sleep till the Lifegiver comes, "then wake to full immortal bloom." At the funeral a sympathizing congregation was addressed by the writer from 1 Thess. iv, 13, 14.

H. F. LASHIER.
