Rock County, Wisconsin

25
In Madison, Wis., April 9, 1889, Justin M. HULL, M.D., aged 43 years and 10
months.
The deceased was the son of the late Eld. O. P. HULL. He enlisted in the war of the
rebellion when a little past 17 years of age, was a member of Co. L, 3d Wisconsin Volunteer Cavalry. He had been a member of the Legislature of the State of Iowa. He was twice appointed by the Governors of Iowa a member of the State Board of Health. His remains were brought to Milton and interred April 12th; the pastor of the Milton Church officiating, assisted by Rev. Dr. Wardner. He leaves a widow, a son and daughter, who deeply mourn his decease. E. M. D. [Vol. 45, No. 17, p. 272]

In Milton, Wis., April 10, 1889, of heart disease, Mrs. Elizabeth B[owler] S.
WELLS, aged about 65 years.
Sister WELLS maiden name was SHERMAN. She resided near Newport, R.I.,
until she was married to Wm. B. WELLS, of Milton, February 28, 1886, who survives her. She was baptized into the membership of the Seventh-day Baptist Church at Milton, May 3, 1884. Before her marriage she belonged to the denomination of Friends. She was a God-fearing Christian, and a model wife, greatly beloved in the community and in the church. It would seem impossible to speak too highly in her praise; she was so cheerful, loving, self-denying and intelligent. Her husband will greatly miss her. She leaves three sisters and two brothers. Her funeral was very largely attended, and the sermon preached by her pastor was from the words, "There is but a step between me and death." E. M. D.
