Funeral Services OF DIR. Edwards
Yesterday --- Last Rites Over
the iInn in Whose ARMS John
Quincy Adams Died.

Yesterday --- Last Rites Over
the lInn in Whose ArinS John
Quincy Adams Died.
The funeral oi the Hon. DR.. Edwards,
which took place from his late residence
Yesterday was largely attended by the
members Of the medical profession OF
the city. Religious services were held
at the house by the Rev. Mr.. Barnitz, Of
the Lutheran Church, and the Rev. DR..
Fisher, Of the First Presbyterian Church.
The following is brief synopsis OF DR..
Fishers remarks:
sixtv.six years of life seem to be n
long period. But they have an end; and
10 the individual the duration Of whose
life they mark they must appear to be
short when he is drawing TO their close.
Through so many years DR.. Edwards has
been spared, and now Mt their close he
has been called to another world.
His life was not spent in vain. 1t was
bis privilege to occupy numerous posi-
tions OF trust and influence. For long
time he practiced as a physician. And
there are very few professions which can
compare with that of medicine as to OPP
portuuities for doing good. There are
other walks in which money may be nc
cumulatcd more rapidly. But every
faithful physician is public benefactor.
Then he served his country in Congress,
and afterwards, in different positions, he
continued to receive the confidence Of his
brethren in his profession, and OF the
people at large, and to discharge tho du'
ties which were laid upon him.
1t Is said that John Quincy Adams died
in the arms OF DR.. Edwards. The last
words OF the venerable ex-President were
"This is the end Of earth; am content"
And when, at the close OF quarter oil a
century, his friend was called to follow
him, 1t was with similar sentiment in
his heart Disease for months past had
been slowly making inronds upon him.
He felt that his work on earth was SUBJ
stantially done. lie did not wish to re-
main here any longer, il it might please
God to call him to his rest, And so when
she end Of earth" came to him he also was
content"
Many years ago DR.. Edwards became a
member Of the Presbyterian Church aad
so continued until he died. HIS faith in
Christ remained firm unto tho end. One
Of his last utterances was an expression
Of trust in the Redeemer.
He has departed from earth, from the
bosom Of his family, and from the COM
panionship Of this world. He has gone
10 other scenes and other fellowships. He
is with the comrades OF his youth and
earlier manhood. He is with Christ and
the society Of heaven: ~, a.,
Sorrow not, dear friends: seek divine
grace to sustain and sanctify yon under
this sorrow. Prepare 10 go and be with
your loved ones who sleep in Jesus. Look
unto Him, who is both an example for
our imitation, and the efficient source Of
all our help in times Of need.
