OBITUARY NOTICE.

CAMBRIDGE, April 27th, 1876.

At the residence of her father, Robert Richardson, on the 25th inst, at 1 P. M., died, Mrs. Alice Tillotson, in the 21 year of her age.

Her sickeness was brief, and death so unexpected we can hardly realize that she has gone. She leaves an infant that will never know a mothers love. Mrs. Tillotson was a member of the M. E. Church, and died in the triumphs of Christian faith. In her death her husband has lost a most devoted wife, her parents an affectionate daughter, her brothers and sister one of the kindest sisters. Truly can all say, they that knew her best loved her most. Though all that is visible of our dear Alice is gone, yet in life, lifted by the hand of death into memory's high and holy domain will live, forever live, beckoning us upward.
