In Westerly, R. I., March 18th, Esther Vernelia, wife of Charles A. Stillman, aged 24 years and 8 months. In her early youth she made a public profession of her faith in Christ as her Saviour, and united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church in Scott, N. Y. On the 6th of June, 1845, she became a member of the Seventh-day Baptist Church of Pawcatuck, which relation she sustained to the time of her death. Her piety was of an unostentatious character, yet manifested itself in those forms which gave to those who knew her best a firm assurance that the principles of Christianity were deeply rooted in her heart. Having for a number of months previous to her death felt, and frequently expressed to her friends, a premonition that she should stay but a very short time with them, she manifested a diligence quite unusual to set her house in order for the approach of death. When it came, she met it with Christian resignation, and we hope fell asleep in Jesus. A. B. B.

On May 5, 1909, Charles A. Stillman, at the age of 84 years and 3 months.
Charles A. Stillman was the son of Adam and Lydia Spaulding Stillman, and was born January 30, 1825, in the old Stillman house on Berry Hill, between Westerly and Potter Hill. On October 4, 1846, he was married to Esther V. Babcock, who died March 18, 1853, leaving two children, G. Edward and Lucius. He was afterward married to Eliza C. Stillman on November 30, 1855 [1854], who survives him. He leaves a sister, Mrs. E. Clarke Saunders of Westerly, a brother, Asa of Seattle, and three children: G. Edward of Plainfield, N. J., E. Herman of Westerly, and Mrs. James C. Hemphill, with whom he made his home. Last January Mr. Stillman had a fall which developed other troubles, chief of which was a hardening of the arteries from which he died. He joined the First Hopkinton Church in 1840, and on moving to Westerly, in 1852, transferred his membership to the Pawcatuck Church, of which he was a member at the time of his death.
The funeral service was held at his late home on Sabbath day, May 8, conducted by the pastor. C. A. B.
