"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 40, No 8, p 5, Feb. 21, 1884. In Edgerton, Wis., Feb. 7, 1884, Lester W., son of Rev. L. C. Rogers, aged 22 years, 4 months, and 5 days. He had been running down for a long time, chiefly from abscesses, which continued to form and discharge in spite of the best medical skill that could be employed. For months he had been nearly or quite helpless, but bore his great suffering with extraordinary patience, never once having been heard to murmur. He left very comforting assurances that his peace was made with God often engaging in audible prayer with his parents, and by decided expressions of faith and trust in God's forgiving mercy through Christ. His last audible words were, "I feel the blessing in my soul!" The funeral services were held at the house on Sabbath, the 9th, in the presence of a large gathering of sympathizing friends. Sermon by the pastor of the Milton Junction Church, from Rom. 13: 11, "And that knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now is our salvat! ion nearer than when we believed."
