Obituary Notices.

“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.” Rev. 14:13.

McCutchan.—Died of quick consumption, at Clay Banks, Wis., Jan. 9, 1880, Fannie McCutchan, aged 18 years lacking one week. She with her parents and others embraced the truth at the time of the tent-meeting there in 1878, and from that time till her death she lived a very exemplary Christian life. She was a faithful worker in the Sabbath-school, where she will be greatly missed. She was beloved by all who knew her. Her parents, brothers, and sisters feel deeply their loss, but do not mourn without hope. Discourse by the writer, from Ps. 90:12, to a very large and sympathizing congregation. O. A. Olsen.

Burdick.—Died near Hanover, Mich., Dec. 31, 1879, Hannah Burdick, aged 84 years, 5 months, and 11 days. Sister Burdick was early taught to keep the Sabbath, her mother being a Seventh-day Baptist. At the age of thirty-eight, while living in Alden, Erie Co., N. Y., she publicly made profession of religion, was baptized, and united with the Seventh-day Baptist church. Three years ago she attended the tent-meetings held in Hanover by Elds. Frisbie and Daniels. She has since expressed her faith that the coming of the Lord is near. The last few weeks of her life she seemed to enjoy much of the presence of the Lord, and expressed a desire to close her work and be at rest. Funeral sermon by the writer, from 1 Thess. 4:13-18. W. W. Sharp.
