In Hopkinton, R. I., March 25, 1888, Ephraim Stillman, aged 82 years. He was the son of David and Grace Crandall Stillman, and died in the house in which he was born. November 15, 1832, he was married to Pamillie Potter, who survives him. In 1834, he confessed Christ and united with the First Seventh-day Baptist Church of Hopkinton, of which he was an esteemed member at the time of his death. His widow and eight children, are, or have been at some time, members of the same church. All the family, except one daughter living in Ohio, attended the funeral; those away having been called home by the sickness which terminated his life, after one week. Brother Stillman was noted for his hopeful disposition and cheerfulness, which did not forsake him in age or sickness.
