In Brookfield, N. Y., June 1st, 1871, of congestion of the lungs, Mr. Thomas Coon, in the 77th year of his age. The deceased made profession of faith in Christ many years ago, and united with the First Hopkinton Church, where his early life was spent, and retained his membership in the same church until death. His funeral was largely attended in the Second Brookfield Church, on Sabbath, June 3d. A widow and a large family of children mourn his death, yet look with hope to that bright morning when Jesus shall call his own from their dusty beds to a glorious and immortal life. J. M. T.
