At the home of her daughter, Mrs. M. Herpich, in Winfield, Kan., Mrs. Jane R. D. Platts, in the 80th year of her age.

Mrs. Platts was a daughter of the late Simeon Randolph, of Plainfield, N. J. In 1831 she was married to Randolph Drake, by whom she had eleven children, four of whom, three daughters and one son, survive her. Shortly after their marriage, they were both converted and united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church in Plainfield. On removal to Farina, Ill., they became members of the church in that place, where Mr. Drake died in 1874. In 1876 she was married to David R. Platts, who died in 1878, since which time she has lived with her children. She lived a faithful Christian life, and passed peacefully to her rest in the Lord.
