In speaking of the recent death of our es-
teemed friend and fellow citizen Zenas Raw
son the pastor of his church, in The Stand
ard says: Deacon Rawson was born in
Springfield n. Y. He was baptised when
fourteen years of age. He assisted in found
ing the First Baptist Church of Lockport, n.
Y. He was deacon III the church at Perry,
Wyoming Co., N. Y, for thirty years, and he
lived twenty-one years in the West. He was
a veteran of the war of 1872. He was a fear
less soldier in Gods army. He practically
carried out the Apostles precept, 'abhor that
which is evil, cleave to that which is good.
There was no worldly policy that could in
fuence him. when any moral question was
involved. He was thoroughly conscientious.
The world might say: He leans over back
ward He had also much of the child-like
spirit, and his heart was as tender. as his
principles were stern. He said that his Saw
ior had taken him i'll charge, long before. and
he rested calmly in his keeping. He was a
great sufferer toward the last. but he has now
drunk at the fountain of immortal youth
Would that we had more of these Christian
heroes, these spiritual stalwarts. to witness
for God, and rebuke the cowardly spirit OF
compromise that is honey combing the life
of so many churches"
