EATON.—Died of heart disease, sister Zemira J. Eaton, wife of Elder Otis C. Eaton, at her home in Winterport, Maine, March 22d, 1885, aged about 47 years.

Sister Eaton was born at Deer Isle, and about eighteen years ago, she consecrated her life to God in holy baptism. All through the subsequent years, she honored her covenant vows. She was a firm, decided christian woman; a tender, loving companion and mother, a firm believer in prayers and the promises of God.

She was the mother of twelve children, nine of whom still survive her. She gave the clearest evidence that her spiritual change was deep and thorough and that the Master she had served would reward at last.

Funeral services were held at the Methodist Church. Sermon by A. A. Lewis from the words "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his Saints." May the comfort of divine grace sustain our bereaved brother and the afflicted Children.
