mouth passed through the aperture made by
the knife, air for the lungs through the same
incission, remarkable % it may appear, is
actually recovering, and is now considered
ont of danger. When first entered at the
Hospital no one supposed that there was the
least chance for him to live His wounds
were carefully dressed and he was left to
die. The following day it was found that
he had recovered considerably and then his
medical attendants began the experiment
(for such 1t really was) to save his life. The
wound particularly attended to and drawn
together. A tube was inserted through his
mouth and passed the cut in the canal and
through this he was fed three times day.
Now the wound is healing in proper man.

case than this we are sure ever

The Late Jacob Young.

Who does not know, or has not heard OF
Rev. Jacob Young, the patriarch of Method
ism in the United States The good old man
died ut the residesce of his son in Harrisburg,
Friday, at the advanced age ofS3 years, and
Sunday afternoon his funeral sermon was
preached in the Town street church, by the
venerable Jos Carper, of Somerset, cola
borer Of the deceased in the cause of religion.
The church was filed to suffocation, hundreds
being unable to obtain seats, were obliged to
stand in the aisles, and entrance. The street
was blocked with carriages for half square
in front of the church indeed it seemed as
if everybody wanted to pay their last tribute
to the man that had devoted long life to
Christ and Him only. About half past four
the funeral train was formed and slowly,
sadly wended its way to Green Lawn Gene
terry, where the body was entombed. The
procession was the largest that has ever been
seen on our streets for years.
Jacob Young was born in what is called
Allegheny county, Peen, March 10Th,
l776, and in Sept 1901, he was licensed to
preach, and began in Shelby county, Ken
tucky, as an itinerant, and was placed on the
Wayne(Ky )Circuit in 1902. In 1905 he was
appointed on the Marietta Circuit and in
1906 was sent to Tennessee, from there to
Mississippi; then to Virginia, and Maryland
next. In 1912 he came again to Ohio and
remained here until his death. He acted as
Presiding Elder in most of the districts OF
the State, being on the Columbus district
from 1885 to 1889, and closed his itinerant
labors in 1856 on the Rehoboth Circuit, be-
cause of exhaustion and failure OF oversight
He was superannuated at the Newark Com
ference in 1856 at the age of so years, having
been in the ministry So years; indeed it may
be said he was in the ministry till bis death,
for he occasionally preached at various pla-
ces. He was present at the Conference held
here the first of this month, and his counsels
were of great weight
Probably the last demonstration by the
veteran preacher was at Delaware, when the
Conference visited their brethren on the hill,
in that beautiful village He said "in 1892
he became connected with the Western Con-
ference. They were noble band of men, but
he was the only one left" and now there
were none left Of that glorious, self-sacrif-
cling handful Of preachers who traversed the
country hundreds Of miles, spreading the
gospel in every house and in the fields But
look at their works!
1t is said that Jacob Young was the oldest
man in the Methodist ministry that is he
has been in the ministry longer than any
other man in the United States. Rev. Jos.
Carper, who preached his funeral sermon, 10
superannuated, and now occupies the place
