    In Walworth, Wis., Feb. 25, 1889, in the 82d year of his age, Thomas Walters.
    Deceased was born in Derbyshire, Eng., June 10, 1807. Came to the United States in 1839, stopping at Plainfield, N. Y., where, in 1842, he was married to Alzina Maxson. Soon after, he embraced religion and the Sabbath, and united with the Free Will Baptist Church at Plainfield. In 1843 he came to Walworth, Wis., and subsequently united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church there, of which he remained a member in full connection until translated to the church triumphant. His wife (Alzina) preceded him many years ago. He subsequently married a second time. Three sons and three daughters by his first wife, and two sons by his second, together with their mother, survive him. He had been severely afflicted for several years, but he bore all with patient resignation to the Divine will, and peacefully passed away in the arms of Jesus. S. H. B.
