OBITUARY.

Mrs. Augusta l.. Woolcott, died Of
pneumonia, March 81, 1888, aged
60 years, I months and one day.
She was a native of New Lebanon
Springs. \. Y, and was the grand
daughter of the Rev. Nathaniel Otis;
one of the pioneer Baptist ministers
in New York state. In her 14th
year she became the subject of Saw
ing Religion, and continued a con-
sistent and faithful follower of the
Savior till her end. She was MAJ
ried to Mr.. j. X. Woolcott in 1913,
and for 40 years they have shared
the joys and sorrows of life together.
In 1854 they left New York for Wis
%consin, where they remained for
seven years. In 1861 they removed
to Floyd county, Iowa, and from
there in 1868, to Union county, Da-
kota.
The funeral services were conduc-
ted in the Baptist church last Sab
bath morning, the other churchs
showing their respect and sympathy
by dispensing with their usual servi-
ces, that all might attend. Revs.
NJ. Miller, &. r. Oake and J. V.
Hines assisted in the devotional ex-
e%rcises, and the Rev. T. II. Jones
preached an appropriate sermon
from Mark 14-S: "She hath done
what she could" She was a true
sister of mercy, her life being one OF
active benevolence. She was ever
found where there was suffering,
sorrow or distress, and her deeply
sympathetic nature and large expe-
rience made her presence of untold
value amid such scenes. Her self
sacrificing and self-denying spirit
scarcely knew any bounds, being al
ways ready to do what she could fol
the good Of others, though it nigh,
endanger her own health.
Her monument is already reared
in the many grateful hearts ant
homes which she has blessed by
deeds Of kindness.
"The righteous shall be had in ev
erlasting remembrance" I. II. j.
