OBITUARY.

Mrs. Alvira Morse, widow of the late
Solomon Mcintosh died at Bethel Gilead
Nov. 30, 1883, aged sixty-one years.
She had been an invalid for more than
ten years, suffering extremely most OF
the time with rheumatism. She also
had the old-fashioned pulmonary con-
sumption and it was this that finally
ended the struggle. The incessant
coughing greatly aggravated the suffer
ing from the rheumatism; but she was
strengthened and sustained during her
long years of trial. and illustrated TO an
eminent degree the wonderful triumph
of a Christian over all earthly afilictiou.
She was an honored member of the
Methodist Episcopal church and her
life and spirit are an invaluable heritage
to her children, who did all they could
by devoted personal attention to minis
ter to all her necessities.
