At Nortonville, Kansas, April 15, 1891, of paralysis, at the residence of her son, Mrs. Sophronia Burdick Vincent, aged 77 years, 9 months and 29 days.
About six weeks before her death she was taken from Milton to Nortonville, hoping she might recover. Upon her decease the remains were brought here for burial, accompanied by her only son, William, and Miss Alta Wade, who had been brought up by Sister Vincent. She joined the Milton Seventh-day Baptist Church by letter in January, 1853, and was always a consistent and devoted member, attending all the appointments of the church, and assisting, by her benefactions, the poor of the church. Passed away from earth, she sleeps in Jesus. "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord." E. M. D.
