"Rev. Jas. Henderson, Of Browns

the NJ. + Church at Cambridge, Ohio,
and afterward Presiding Elder of that

CONGESTION of the lungs--He had been
in poor health, and after visiting. friends
at McConnellsville, was on his way to
Cambridge to join his daughter, when
his useful life was so sadly terminated
by death. His daughter was telegraph
ed for, but only arrived too late to get
a fathers dying words. His remains
were taken to Cambridge this morning
for interment."
"He was good man and faithful min.
lister in the fullest sense Of the terms,
and his death leaves three children or

From the Barnsssille Enterprise, Sept. 2i.l
s.Rev. Henderson was stationed at
Barnesville in 1859, and here as else
where he was greatly loved by all who
knew him. He was one of the minis
tiers who praeticed as he preached. In
every relation Of life he was true and
faithful. A pang Of regret comes upon
us when we reflect that one whose heart
was ever affected by the suffering Of
others, should thus die without friend
at his side. He was surely prepared for
the change, but the world is poorer be-
because a good man has departed"
Rev. HENDERSON was stationed at
Woodsfield in 1901. and was one of
the few Ministers, sent here, whom all
persons esteemed. He was one of the
best and purest men we ever knew. =

how reticent he has been in the midst OF SEEM

has been In your confidence together. You

which they took all That was offered TO them,
yet never let you see that they geve you moth

received to-day. Two thousand persons pa
raded the streets with music and banners.
The Archbishop said, with respect to his course
in the Gcumenlcal Council, he would state
briefly the motives which governed his ac-
tions. Often in debate he had perhaps seemed
opposed 10 the great doctrine of the church,
but this arose from the fact that there were ar
guments which he could not explain. His op-
position was due to a misconception of the
real character OF the principles involved. After
the close OF the examination of the question,
he would say that his motives for submission
were simply due to an unshaken belief in the
authority Of the Catholic Church. The reason
of the necessity for rendering obedience to
the church was selfeyldent, and could not be
painsaid
