   At Milton, Wis., at 12:30 A. M., Oct. 12, 1893, of heart failure, Geo. R. Maxson, son of the late Luke Maxson, of Alfred Centre, N. Y.
   The deceased was 61 years of age last June. He had been out of health for a year or more. He leaves a wife and four daughters, all of whom are greatly saddened over this departure of husband and father. He was a kind husband, a loving father and an honest, generous and conscientious man. He received a classical education at Alfred Centre, and at one time filled an important position in one of the principle county offices in Vandalia, Ill. He made a profession of religion in early life and united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church at Alfred Centre, whence he transferred his membership to Farina, Ill. We trust he died with the Christian's hope, as in the latter part of his life his interest in spiritual matters was very much revived. His funeral was attended by a large concourse of relatives and friends. Sermon by the writer. E. M. D.
