James CONKLIN died in Bedford, the 20th of September, 1887. He was born in South Salem, Westchester county, NY in 1807. He was married in Rochester, NY, to Miss H. PADOCK in 1831 and removed to this State in 1836. They came among the early settlers in this part of the State, and became widely known and highly esteemed among our citizens. Mrs. Conklin was a member of the Baptist church at the
time of their marriage and was among the early members of that church in Battle Creek. Mr. Conklin subsequently became connected with the same church; and they were- among the intelligent, industrious and economical people who have helped to develop and give character to a large community.

Forty-seven years of their lives were spent upon the farm, five miles north-west of Battle Creek, where they both passed away 'to their rest. They were given six sons and one daughter, of whom only four sons are now living. the daughter, Mrs. E. B. FINLAY, died in Battle Creek in May last. Mrs. Conklin was suddenly called away while watching beside her husband, on the tenth instant, and thus preceded him by
ten days, having lived to be five days older than he was at his decease. Mr. Conklin has been seriously sick for many months, but expressed thankfulness that his wife having cared for him so long, and so faithfully, was called away while he was living, instead of being left to close her life in his absence.
