In Brookfield, N. Y., Dec. 3, 1890, Mrs. Harriet Saunders, in the 75th year of her age.
Sister Saunders was born Dec. 25, 1816. Her maiden name was Franklin. In 1839 she was married to Dr. A. L. Saunders, who preceded her in death some eight years. Three children were born to them - a girl dying in infancy, and two sons - Myrtus A., of Syracuse, N. Y., and Erret F., of Brookfield. She united with the Second Seventh-day Baptist Church in 1852, of which she has since been a consistent member. Her life was a constant testimony of the truth. Through a lingering sickness she was very patient, and in her suffering, uncomplaining; and when at last death came she seemed ready to meet it, even anxious to go. Her life was a lesson to all who knew her.
