Covington Ga. Nov 1 1860, 167 Dear Brethren Editors:—Please publish in the Messenger, the following Obituary Notice- sister ELIZABETH BANKS, who fell asleep in Jesus on Tuesday, Oct. 2,1860, being about eighty-six years of age. She was the daughter of Eld. Noah Lacy, and the widow of Dea. Richard Banks, of Bethlehem church of this County, where he continued a faithful and exemplary member till the time of his death, which was more than thirty years ago, and where his widow continued an humble and devoted member till the time above named. She raised her children in credit, and most of them have made a public profession of religion, and such as have not, I believe have a good hope through grace. O that they may all live as did their parents,, and die as they died. They have no reason tolament the departure of their faithful and kind mother; for truly she remained stead- fast in the faith to the end of her pilgrimage, and is no doubt where sighing and sorrow is no more. Yours in love, D. W. PATMAN. Additional Comments: EDITORIAL. WII. L. BEEBE, \ Editors J. L.
