In Verona, N. Y., Aug. 9, 1856, Abel Burdick, in the eightieth year of his age.
Brother Burdick had for several years been afflicted with a cough, which at times was very severe, and being naturally of a feeble constitution, has been gradually wasting away; but was able to take out-door exercise until the day of his death. He has left an aged widow and eight children to mourn his loss, but not as those who mourn without hope.
He made a profession of religion in early life and united with the church in Hopkinton, R. I. In 1803 he removed to Rensselaer Co., N. Y., and united with the church now known as the Berlin Church. Since that time he has resided in various places in this State, but was for several years previous to his death a resident of Verona, and a worthy member of the 2d Verona Church, and we trust that he has now gone to join the church above, and bask in the smiles of the blessed Saviour, "where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest." "Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him."
