Near North Loup, Neb., Oct. 16, 1882, of typhoid fever, Mary C., wife of Hiram Sweet, recently from Minnesota, aged 49 years. Sister Sweet was born in Oneida county, N. Y., married at twenty years of age, and was baptized and united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church at Carlston, Minn., in the year 1862. The family came to this State this Fall, and the chief anxiety of the mother in seeking a location was to have her children where they could attend school and church. Her Christian life was characterized by faithful service, and we trust that she rests in the arms of her beloved Master.
