Thursday, June 7, 1883


              MRS. THOMAS SLATER, of this city, died, May 31st, 1883,
            of remittant fever following measles, aged 35 years. She
            was born in Wesley, Maine, Feb. 1848. Her maiden name
            was SARAH. C. SPRAGUE. She received a good common edu-
            cation, and enjoyed the early culture of a thorough
            christian mother. She was converted at the age of 19,
            joined the congregational church, taught in the Sabbath
            school, and has continued to grow in her christian ex-
            perience. She has with her husband, been a member of
            the Presbyterian church, in this city for the past eight
            years, and deeply interested in its spiritual growth.
            She was married to MR. SLATER at Biddeford, Maine,
            Dec 18, 1868. The family have resided here for the past
            ten years. In her home she has been a strict example of
            affection, honor, industry, and piety; training her
            children by the gospel. The death of her christian
            daughter, LILLIAN, one year ago, has been a discipline
            of watchfulness for the call of the master now so sud-
            den. The remaining family are the bereaved husband,
            one daughter of eleven years, and one son of nine years.
            The funeral services were held at the family residence
            in the Second ward, on Saturday, June 2, conducted by
            the pastor, and attended by a large circle of friends,
            who sympathize deeply with the afflicted family.
