"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 13, No 52, p 207, June 4, 1857.
In DeRuyter, May 22, 1857, of consumption, Mrs. Elizabeth C. Coon, wife of Artemas Coon, and eldest daughter of Dea. Henry Crandall, aged thirty-six years. From early youth she was a faithful professor of religion. To a brother who arrived just before her departure, she said, "Do not weep; we sing here; I am going HOME." During her last days of suffering, she maintained her calm trust in God, and joined in singing his praise, with the glad expectation soon of renewing her songs with the church in heaven. Walking by faith, not by sight, she welcomed death, "willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord."
