For the St. Louis Christian Advocate,Died—Ou the 10th inst., near Flint Hill, Mo., after an illness of several weeks, Mrs. Sauna, wife of Bro. John McNeily, aged about thirty-six years.Sister McNeily had been a professor of religion for a number of years, and manifested, by her exemplary Christian walk, that hers was not merely an empty profession—she was deeply pious; and, as might have been expected after a life of devotedness to God, when death drew nigh, she was not affrighted, but spofee of her dissolution with a calmness, and even triumph, peculiar only to the true Christian. May God sustain and comfort her bereaved husband and children, andbring them at last in triumph to the home of the good.Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.5’Died,—On the 22d inst.. at Flint Hill, Mo., HarveyBascom, infant sou of Rev. D. T. and Clara Sherman, aged one year four months and twenty days.Little Bascom was a very sprightly child, and was just beginning to delight his parents’ hearts with his little innocent prattle; but death came and nipped the flower in the bud; and we laid him away to sleep till the resurrection morn. May that One who said, “Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto1 andme,” comfort our Bro. and sister, and bring them their remaining children to the land where there is no more death.
