"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 20, No 34, p 135, Aug. 25, 1864.
In Memphis, Tenn., July 1st, 1864, of typhoid fever, Kenyon B. Coon, son of Luke and Lois Coon, of Albion, Wis., aged 29 years, 2 months, and 26 days. Bro. Coon professed religion when about 11 years of age, and united with the 2d Seventh-day Baptist Church of Genesee, N. Y. Subsequently, moving to Albion, Wis., he united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church in that place, of which he remained a worthy member until his death.
Although he was far from home, his body was embalmed under the superintendence of his brother in the army, and brought home on the 3d of August, and his funeral services were attended by a large audience on the 7th. By this Providence, an affectionate and confiding wife, fond parents, loving brothers and sisters, and a large circle of relatives and friends, have been unexpectedly and greatly afflicted; in the midst of which they are comforted with the assurance that their great loss is greater gain to the departed. J. C.
