DIED at West Bangor, N. Y., Nov. 3, 1865, of heart disease, Leonard, oldest son of H. W. and M. Lawrence, in the 16th year of his age. He has been low with the above disease at different times, five weeks ago he was taken down again. He was taught in early life to love and obey the Saviour. The principles were never forgotten. He took hold of the truth like one of riper years. He was a great sufferer in his last sickness, yet he bore it calmly and patiently, without a murmur, retaining his full vigor of mind till the last. He left words of advice and warning to his young companions; bade father and mother, brothers and sisters, farewell, and fell asleep.
Sermon by the writer.

FELL asleep in Jesus, at Rouse's Point, N. Y., Sept. 28, 1865, Ezra Stratton, aged eighty-four years. He loved the Advent doctrine from the first. In 1845 he left the Methodist society and identified his religious interest with those looking for the Lord. In 1852, his mind was called to the Sabbath of the Bible, and while he at first thought himself too old to change his rest-day, yet on seeing that his God required it, did so, and rejoiced in its light. He loved the hour of prayer, was a great lover of song, a kind husband, a good father.
Sermon by my brother D. T. T., on the resurrection of the just. We hope to see him in that morning.

DIED, at Adams' Center, N. Y., Oct., 14, 1865, of diptheria, Monroe H., youngest son of H. and O. Bunce, in the 21st year of his age. He had a kind heart and a good spirit. He loved pleasure too well to give his heart to God while in health, yet when brought low, did so, and left an evidence to his weeping friends that all was well.
