In Milton, Wis., Jan. 21st, 1867, of typhoid pneumonia, Mrs. Eusebia N. Coon, in the 51st year of her age. Sister Coon professed religion at the age of fifteen years, and joined the First Alfred Church. In the year 1840 she removed to Wisconsin, and at the organization of the Milton Church, united with that, and remained a worthy member until the Rock River Church was organized, when she joined there, and remained a faithful member until death took her from the church militant to the church triumphant. Sister Coon was quiet and unassuming in her deportment, but ever moving on in the even tenor of God's ways, shedding the influence of a godly example at all times. In her last sickness, her suffering was extreme, yet was borne with that patience and fortitude that ever characterized her life. Her evidence of acceptance with God was clear, and her faith strong to the last. The loss that Bro. Coon and family sustain in this death, is irreparable; and to the church of which she was a member, and the society in which she lived, it is great. The high esteem in which she was held, by this and the surrounding community, was in a measure shown by the concourse of people at her funeral, filling the Rock River meeting-house, where services were held, and a discourse preached by Eld. James C. Rogers, from 2 Tim. 4: 7 - I have fought a good fight," &c.
