In Walworth, Wis., Jan. 24, 1891, of heart failure, Anna Mariah Randolph, wife of N. J. Read, in the 61st year of her age.
Sister Read was born in Shiloh, N. J., and was the daughter of Reuben and Beulah Randolph. At the age of about 14 years she experienced religion and became a member of the Shiloh Seventh-day Baptist Church. In the spring of 1851 she came to Wisconsin and united with the Walworth Church, of which she was a most worthy member at the tome of her death. In 1855 she was married to Nathan J. Read, who, with a son, an only child, survives her. She was closely identified with all that concerns the best interests of the church and the cause of Him whom she most loved, and was ever ready with her sympathies, labor, and means to assist in the Lord's vineyard.
