Mr. Haun lived to good old age. He had 2
remarkably strong and vigorous CONSTITUTION, and
30 far as the writer knows, had little experience OF
sickness and suffering until the few last years OF
his life. His sufferings, however for some weeks
before his death were Of the most excruciating
nature.
He was useful man. Hence his loss must b
severely felt in the community. No one who made
any efforts to help himself ever applied to him fl
help il vain. He never turned the needy away
empty from his door. He WAS truly kind and
generous to the poor. lie had heart to symra-
thise with them in their suIerings and need. and
was always prompt in responding to :heir call FOL
help.
lie was a consistent member Of the cnurch-H'
was in the bosom OF this Reformed church for oyel
halt century. For weeks before his death az
bresthed out his earnest and sincere desires tc
God Ito release him from his intense pains and take
him to himself in Heaven. He had not the leas
doubt OF his acceptance with God and that be was
reconciled to i'm, and "when his earthly hom'
of this tabernacle dissolved, he would have a
building Of God, house not made with hands
