Mrs. Elizabeth Baker –
Of Tremont. Death has again visited this neighbourhood in the removal of the beloved wife of Mr. Samuel Baker. – She was the youngest daughter of our venerable brother, Rev. Dr. Tupper, and his first wife, Mrs. Miriam Tupper. The ardent piety and great prudence of the parents are too well known to need description here. It will be sufficient to say that under those gracious influences their daughter was led early in life to walk in those ways of pleasantness and paths of peace which lead to eternal joy and rest. At the age of sixteen she was brought to trust in Jesus. The Association services held at Amherst on that year were blessed in being the means of her conversion. Her beloved father had the happiness of baptizing her and adding her to the church at Amherst, of which he was the pastor. She was dismissed to the church at Lower Aylesford and Upper Wilmot when her father became its pastor in the year 1851, and remained a consistent member until she was transferred to the church triumphant on Sabbath evening, the 3rd of the present month. Our sister has been deprived of the privilege of constant attendance on the means of grace, and of much service in the cause of Christ, by a lingering sickness, which often depressed her spirits and prostrated her body. On the 29th of June of the present year she partook of the Lord's Supper the last time on earth. She spoke of the great joy she felt on the occasion, at the same time expressing grief that any of God's people could leave the house of prayer and not remain to commune with Jesus. As the close of her earthly sojourn drew near she told us that Jesus was present with her, and that her entire confidence was placed in him. To five of her children standing around her death-bed she expressed her ardent desire that they may be led to the paths of virtue and piety. She also sent a message to an absent son residing in the United States, expressive of her deep anxiety that he may be delivered from the temptations of the world, and meet her in heaven. She has left a family of six sons, two of her youngest children having died in their infancy. She was an affectionate daughter. Her intercourse was kind and harmonious with her step-mothers, as well as with her mother-in-law. She was a devoted wife, and a tender mother. May her dear children, as well as her beloved husband, her aged father, and each member of his family, by the mercy of God, enjoy the felicity of reunion in the better world. At her interment a sermon was preached by the writer on the words, "I knowct that my Redeemer liveth" Job xix. 25.
