his age.
He was born in Lincoln county, North Carolina,
ON the 1st day of November, 1920; professcd re-
ligion at home ir his 2lst year; removed to the
county in which he died in the year 1874. lie
shortly after joined the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church ut Mt Cumberland, and was elected rul-
ing elder in said congregation, which Office he
filled until his death. lie was truly consistent
Christian; his well tempered zeal in the cause of
pic'y, and his untirimg devotion, and ever abound-
ing works of charity and love as n christian, will
long be remembered earth. and their rewards
realized in heaven. Many will long cherish his
memory for his pious friendship and kind Offices
to them. Cares and discouragcmcn.s wasted not
the ardor Of his devotion his place deserted
not. nor his duties omitted. lie was n regular at
tendant at the house of God. lie not only went
himself but always took his little family with him
when not providontially prevented. At camp
meetings his tent was regularly occupied and his
table spread to the multitude. To initiate his OK
ample as n christian, husband, u father, as
n neighbor, would rebound in blessings to the
Church and the world Having thus devoted his
life to the glory of God and the good of his fell
low-creatures, death, though unexpected to bis
| friends, threw no gloom terror over his tri-
umphat spirit; he had lost his sting, and the grave
its victory. Being asked by his paster while
| struggling in the agonies Of death) if all was
well, he remarked with a clear and distinct voice
that his faith was strong in the Lord, and in q
| short time expired Although society, Of which
| he was bright ornament, the Church in which
he was living light, and the family of which he
was kind and afectionate husband and father,
have sustained an irreparabe loss, yet his redeem
ed and sanctifed spirit has gained Its long sought
