"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 15, No 49, p 195, May 12, 1859. In Shiloh, N. J., April 29th, Sarah Ayars, widow of Amasa Ayars, and the mother of a number of children, and truly a mother in Israel, aged 68. She had been a member of the church for many years. And for many months she has apparently been finishing up her work on earth, and laying up a treasure in her home in heaven, which is eternal. She lived only about one hour after she was taken ill. She was so near heaven, that it took but a little while for her to go home. She will be greatly missed in the female prayer-meeting, where her place was always faithfully filled. W. B. G.
