Departed this life, in Alfred Centre, N. Y., April 13, 1890, Jemima R. Ennis, wife of Albert B. Sherman, aged 55 years, 2 months and 6 days.
She was the daughter of Thomas and Abby Ennis and was born in the town of Richmond, R, I., Feb. 7, 1835. She was married to Albert Sherman in October, 1857, when, coming to Alfred, she united with the First Alfred Church in the spring of 1858. She leaves her husband and two daughters, one the wife of Arthur Green of Alfred Centre, to mourn their great loss. She also leaves five sisters and two brothers, living in Rhode Island.
She was a woman of uncommon fortitude and energy, affectionately devoted to her family, full of tenderness and regard for the needy, always firm and unfaltering in her religious faith and trust in Christ. Though she was not publicly demonstrative, yet she was known by her family, by the very numerous friends and acquaintances, to be a woman of noble and stable character, of a virtuous and beautiful life.
She will be very sadly missed by her family, by the church, and by many of the young men students, who found a friend in her. But we all have the assurance that what is a great loss here is an infinite gain to her, in the higher and eternal life.

Albert Bowen Sherman, son of Josiah and Sally Berry Sherman, was born in Norway, Herkimer Co., N. Y., Feb. 9, 1834, and died Feb. 8, 1902.
The family moved to Alfred in January, 1837. Albert was the oldest of five children, of whom only one sister, Mrs. James R. Crandall, now survives. Mr. Sherman was married Oct. 17, 1857, to Jemima R. Ennis, of Richmond Switch, R. I. She died April 13, 1890. Two of the three children born to them remain, living in Alfred. He was married Jan. 1, 1891, to Elizabeth Hemphill Beckwith, who survives him.
He was baptized when a young man of about seventeen by Eld. N. V. Hull, and joined the First Alfred church. He was for some time a clerk of the church. He subsequently became a member of a church at Cowanesque, Pa., where he moved. His love for his old home seemed to grow with advancing years. There was no place for him like Alfred. It was his eager desire to be back there to live and to die.
He loved the cause of God. There were regrets; but he went into the eternity with his trust in an unfailing Saviour. He loved Christian people, especially the Seventh-day Baptists, and was deeply interested in the advancement of the cause. The Sabbath Recorder was always a prized visitor to his home, and there was scarcely an attendant at the last Conference who was more absorbed in its sessions than he.
Services were conducted in the First Alfred church Sabbath afternoon by Pastor Randolph, assisted by Principal Saunders. Text Psa. 29: 4. L. C. R.
