   In Farina, Ill., June 3, 1891, of consumption, Russell W. Burdick, aged 70 years lacking 16 days.
   He was born in Preston, N. Y., and moved to Alfred when he was 17 years old. He was baptized by Eld. N. V. Hull and united with the First Alfred Church. In 1848 he was married to Amelia Vincent, of Almond. Moving to Farina in 1865, he became a constituent member of the Farina Church, at its organization the following spring. He was a faithful member till his death. He expressed repeatedly a complete trust in the Lord Jesus, and said he had no doubts of his acceptance with him. He leaves a widow, four sons and two daughters. He was a brother of Eld. Stephen Burdick. His first vote, cast in Alfred about 46 years ago, and what he was conscious was his last vote, a few weeks before his death, were each against the license of the liquor traffic. He mentioned this coincidence with evident satisfaction while being carried home from the polls. His vote made one majority against license. C.A.B.
