once mechanic in that village, and well to
do In the world. But sickness aud misfor~
tune used up his little property, and be at
last came TO the poor house. But through all
his misfUrtunes he maintained spotless char
acter and cheerful spirit; and what can not
be said Of many d more distinguished man,
his obitua1y is just:
Exchanged his poverty for eternal riches,
and bis rsgs for a crown which tadeth not
