Death of Grandmother Morian.

The venerable Myalmy Morlan, widow of the late Joseph Morlan, was taken with a paralytic stroke, about two weeks ago, and died at an early hour Tuesday morning, at her residence two miles west of town. Her age lacked but 25 days of being 81 years. The funeral was held yesterday afternoon, at the residence, and conducted by Elder J. H. Willey. Marriage licenses since last reorted: j Simeon W.

The book of “Robert Elsmere” by Mrs. Humphrey Ward, has created quite a sensation in the religious world. Mr. Gladstone, the ablest layman in England, has written and and published a review of the book, defending theology from its attacks. A number of the leading clergymen of Chicago and other cities, have deemed it necessary to defend the Bible from the criticisms of the book, from their pulpits. I am not surprised in the least at the contents of the book, as it is simply a rehash of the the Sadducean dogma of “No Miracles.” I will review the book next ing, at the Church of God, and answer the supposed arguments against the Bible. This will be my farewell sermon as I expect to leave for the south sometime next

week.
