    At Potter Hill, R. I., Lois Langworthy, born Aug. 7th, 1789, died Feb. 11th, 1876. The deceased was a daughter of Thomas and Abigail Sisson, the widow of Robert Langworthy, to whom she was married Jan. 8th, 1818; and a member of the First Seventh-day Baptist church of Hopkinton, with which she united by baptism April 27th, 1832. Blessed must be the memory of the mother whose children can say of her, She was a devoted Christian and a good mother, and she never seemed old to us. From the peaceful remains of those who fall asleep in Jesus there seems to come a voice silently whispering:
    "There is no death! What seems so is transition.
    This life of normal breath
    Is but a suburb of the life elysian,
    Whose portal we call death." A. E. M.
