At Milton, Rock Co., Wis., Sept. 23, 1851, Henry Goodrich, in the 20th year of his age. Bro. Goodrich was from Hancock, Berkshire Co., Mass. While at school there he became the subject of God's saving grace, and united with the First-Day Baptist Church. Although his stay with that church was brief, yet his Christian conduct was such that he won the confidence and affection of the church. During the revival with us last winter, he embraced the Sabbath, and united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church in Milton. He was a man of deep piety and much prudence, and was universally respected as a citizen and a Christian. Although surrounded with every earthly blessing, he felt that his home was in heaven. He died as the good man dieth, and went where 'the wicked cease from troubling, and the weary are at rest.'
