Obituary Notices.

DIED, at Knoxville, Iowa, June 25, 1865, sister Sylvia McPheter, in the 40th year of her age. Sister McPheter embraced the truth about six years ago when Bro. Cornell was in Knoxville with the tent. Although in poor health for some years, her last sickness was only about one week. A discourse was given by the writer to relatives and friends on first-day afternoon, Aug. 20.

J. N. LOUGHBOROUGH.

DIED, at Kickapoo, Wis., July 26, 1865, Bro. Palmer Kellogg, aged 56 years. He embraced present truth in 1860, lived an acceptable member of our church; and died peacefully, without a struggle, in full assurance of a glorious immortality at the resurrection of the just.

“He lived, his Saviour to adore, And meekly all his sufferings bore. He loved, and all resigned to God; Nor murmured at his chastening rod.”

THOMAS DENMAN.

DIED in West Fairlee, Vt., Sept. 1, 1865, Mary, wife of Amasa Hutchins, in the 66th year of her age. The deceased was my stepmother.

By this affliction my dear father is left lonely and sad. Though he does not profess religion, he has ever treated my views on the Bible Sabbath, and the immediate coming of the Lord, with great respect, and has often wept freely as we talked and prayed with him.

A. S. HUTCHINS.
