Obituary.

GEoaGE IT, PORTER, son Of d. p Porter died
al The Peabody Normal School at Nashville, Tenn,
May 18th, 1888. He was born At Jackson, Miss,
January r. 1862, making him little over Fl years Of
age, Few young men had bright prospect of
usefulness before them rs he had. 1t was his good
fortune to lie blessed with the faculty OF inspiring
confidence and making friends. He was in every
sense Of the word, reliable There was never a
doubt AZ to what his opinion was, or what he would
do, in any matter involving principle OF right and
wrong. No young man had a higher standard of
integrity, and with this high Standard he had the
moral courage to do the right in every emergency.
The writer has seen him dischargng his duties
among three hundred boys, and he never failed to
command respect Of faculty and students He was
fortunate in its being conceded, that he could not
do otherwise than what was honorable and right
Tie was faithful in work, industrious and careful
To have him for friend was a privilege He was
to his father and mother, both companion and
comfort Few can realize the blank left behind
him at the family hearth-stone, All who knew
him will drop tear Of sympathy for the bereayet
fathe5 mother and family. May our Heavenly
Father, who knows what Is best console thesc
grlef-stricken hearts. S. u. LEE.

A Teachers Tribute.

Rev Dr. Roudebush being called on at the burial |
OF MIR. GRO, II. PORTER, By the officiating minis
ter to make some remarks touching the life and |
character OF the deceased, said: That owing to !
tho intimate and interesting association which had
existed between the dear departed friend and him
self he occupied the place OF mourner rather than
that of one called upon to speak words OF comfort
to Others
He said 1t was useless for him to speak Of the
noble traits of character OF this young those
among whom he had been reared. His manner OF
lie from his early childhood up was well and favor
ably known to them all and needed no comment
to augment his virtues in their estimation. But
he said, no was there to speak of what he had oh
served in the life of his young friend and pupil AZ
it appeared to those who knew him at a distance
and had soon learned to regard him as youth who
was in every every respect worthy OF their esteem
and confidence. II 1t be true that We do not know
men until we know how they are accustomed to act,
it follows that estimate of their character is to
be determined by their conduct at home and
abroad. If we know what their lives have been at
home, and then learn their conduct when removed
from those restraints, and tender associations which
calculated to keep them in the paths OF reati-
tude, we have the test of character.
In the life and conduct OF this young man we
have the most satisfactory evidence, both ut home
and abroad, OF purely unselfsh disposition and n
course of conduct which showed that he was actu-
ated by the purcst motives. There was never any
| doubt as to how he would act in any case where
principle sense Of right was involved. As a
student he was diligent and faithful in the dis
charge OF his duties. As n member of the
College, his influence was always on the side
of good order and OF truth and justice, and yet
exered in such manner rs never to give otiense
but to command the respect of his associates. He
was highly esteemed by the citizens, honored by
his instructors and beloved by his companions, Nc
youth could have more fully met all the require
ments of being reliable and useful man. The
Doctor then spoke of seeing him for the last time nj
Nashville, where he had secured for himself the
same good name which had been so universally
awarded him in his own State. Wherever he was
known his name was the synonym for whatever
was manly in bearing chaste and prudent in con
duct
After speaking of his fidelity to his young friend
and associates at college and entroating them to i'm
itate his example and to cherish his virtues he con
: cuded with this appropriate exhortation OF thu
Apostles; "Finally, brethren, whatsoever thing
are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoeve
; things are just whatsoever things pure whatso
things lovely, whatsoever things are Of goo
report; if there be any virtue and il there be an
praise, think of these things" For these thing
may truly he said OF him to whose memory yot
