    At Adams Centre, N. Y., Dec. 10th, 1874, Mrs. Amy Green, wife of Charles Green, aged 86 years, 2 months, and 14 days. She was born in Rensselaer County, but in 1805, sixty-nine years ago, moved, with her husband, to Northern New York, where they have since lived. They were of the thirteen, who, fifty-two years ago, formed the organization of the Adams Seventh-day Baptist Church. She had been a consistent professor of religion for seventy-four years. She had lived with her husband seventy-one years and had born 13 children, all of whom she saw grow up and have families of their own. Her descendants extended to the fourth generation, and altogether numbered a considerable over one hundred. She leaves the husband of her youth in his ninety-sixth year to mourn her departure. Her life was one of toil and many hardships, yet she was noted for her cheerful and devotional spirit. She was truly a mother in Israel. A. B. P.
