there that the writer first heard him preach.

He was much loved by oil his people. He
was great power for good. He was Mis-

term, and he taught his churches the spirit Of

that his disease was brought on by excessive

this long continued illness, he was never
heard to murmur. On last Monday he fell

boon served and property sold to sat>
isty them. Others will be served and

tho judgement is satisfied, wo pre-
sumo, unless some legal remedy is
found to stop them. The people
should move in tho matter as one man
