Notes:

On the 16th of March, after a brief illness, at his residence in Elkhart Co., Ind., brother David Good, [deacon] aged 59 yrs., 11 mo., and 24 days.

It was my happy privilege to form a partial acquaintance with our departed brother, just in the evening of his life. Though prostrated by disease, and his remaining bodily strength fast failing, yet like all true Christians, he was resigned to the Master's will. Well might he rest contented, having stayed his confidence and dependence in One who is mighty.

His speedy removal is deeply felt by all, and more especially by the church in which he was for a number of years a faithful member and an active laborer. He was prompt and faithful in the discharge of the duties whith(sic) his office imposed upon him, and we confidently hope and believe that he now "rests from his labors"---"Let us also labor to enter into that rest.
Elkhart, Ind.
