OBITUARY.
Nc eopy the following toucaing ID trst.-

We copy the following touching and truth
fuI tribute 70 one OF our Oldest and most es-
tesmed feslew-eitizens:
/ sTARR-On Sabbath afternoon, January
1 20, our old friend r. ID. STAER, was laid
in his last earthlE resting place. he died
on the day previous, after a prctracted and
/ painful illness. Aged "a years. His funeral
] services were performed in the E1rst fresDy'
| terrain Church, in the presence Of large
number Of friends.
In his death it seems 10 US that a landmark
has been removed from the walks Of society
In our midst. For twenty-five years he has
walked our streets and mingled in our society
our business and our worship.
] In society he was ever polite, entertaining
and eaineHsly peaceInaker; always striving
/ to make rough places smooth and endearing
to promote harmony and good viii in every
household where he had any influence. Tbs
kind and comforting words-tcords were ever
ready on his lips for all who needed them.
! In his business he was faultless in his In
| tegrity and accuracy. 1t is believed that he
died without an enemy.
By his faithfulness, efficiency and courtesy
as an officer in the First Presbyterian Church
in Memphis, he has for many years aided in
the worship of the eveT-blessed God, in whose
bosom we believe he now rests, free from
care, pain and sin. Blessed rest! which re-
maineth for the people OF GOdi
"They are gathering homeward from every
land,
One by one.
| as their weary feet touch the shining stand.
One by one.
/ Their brows are enclosed in q golden crown,
Their trayel-stained garments are all laid
down,
And clothed in white railnent, they rest on
the mead,
Where the savior loves his chosen to lead,
One by one"
