CIV. whose lie has, to say the least been one
worthy Of recital Edward was given the ad-
Fantaee of frst-class education at the Miami
College, followed by two-years' course al
Princeton, fitting himself for the Presbyterian
pulpit Following this, Edwards education was
still further assisted By two years at GeneTa,
sEitzerland, attending the lectures at that
nlace, the principal lecturer being Monsieur
Merle. better known in the United States as
pnof. D,Aubiepe,-a name said to have been
taken from deceased wife Of the Professor, he
heinp amuch-married man. After finishing his
fsudies at Geneva, Edward returned to America,
soent one winter with sister in St. Panl, Mtnn.,
and then came to Cincinnati to take charge OF
the property left him by his parents. In the
year 1862, when ne became master OF DIS
own estate be formed the strange idea Of selling
his portion Of the estate and giving it to the
Lord Jesus Christ; in other words. to the cause
Of Christiauity To this there Was one obstacle,
that was, however, soon done away with. Mr.
Guy had formed marriage contract, and TO sell
his property to give it to the Lord JESUS he
would have to obtain the prospective Mrs. Guy g
consent. This was, however, freely given, and
after giving his wife s1,0o and settling her
bills, the good work began.
In September, 1862, Edward Alexander Guy
began selling off his property, commencing With
the old homestead, corner Western row and Me
soon hobbling in the Golfers OF the Lord, 2 por'
ton OF it through the agency OF George Miller,
No, 81 Park street, Bristol, England.
OF course, this strange freak brought forth
from Mr.. GUYS numerous friends several queries
as to bis reasons Tor doing as he had To these
: ~ nnrtinp from Ehe ECTfrfr

GUY kept on selling his property, and d1sposlng
at It in like manner. From an old diary We
we're permitted to copy the following sales OF bis
portion of the Guy estate, beside the old home
stead, already spoken of: There was lot OF
Everett street which sold for 81 .265S5174 or
