DEATH OF AN AGED MINISTER. The
Rev. John Miller, of the Baltimore Confer :
ence, Methodist Episcopal Church, died at
Westminster, Nd, Oct. uth, aged So years.
He united with the Conference as an itin-
Grant in 1919. In March, 1884 he was ap-
pointed to Lexington Circuit, remain ing in
charge for one year. Mr.. Miller. possessed
very strong preaching ability and was quite
popular in Rockbridge county, notwithstan-
ding the doctrines and usages of his church
met with considerable opposition among the
Scotch Irish population of that county. His
ministry there had the divine benediction
and many WHO were by him led to the
Savior that year preceded him to the land of
rest and will shine as stars in the crown of
his rejoicing. His end was what might have
been expected, after long life Of expert
mental and practical piety, his last message
being ''Tell my brethren of the Conference
that l am dying triumphantly and want
them to meet me in Heaven The writer
though mere boy at the time of his pasto-
rate on the Lexington circuit, learned to
venerate him as messenger OF God.
