Aged 74y 10m 19d = 30 Nov 1829

At Buckley, Washington, Sister Elnora Kilmer, aged 74 years, 10 months and 19 days.

Sister Kilmer was born in New York, November 24, 1829. She was united in marriage to John Kilmer December 22, 1848, in Indiana. Seven children were born to them, three of whom passed on before to the spirit world. She was a great sufferer for many years. She was converted over fifty years ago, united with the Church of God, and never betrayed the faith. She lived in Indiana, Michigan, Kansas, Nebraska , and finally in Washington, whence she passed into rest with the Lord. She was a widow for many years, and all these years were spent in doing good where she had opportunity, and especially in helping and comforting her children. She was a staunch defender of the Church of God, and her best arguments were found in her consecrated life, as shown by the kindness of her neighbors and friends. I received a telegram to go at once. It is 230 miles; but I would have gone had it been five hundred. I love to tell of the salvation of Christ on such occasions. The Lord blesses the surviving sons and the daughter.
