with the redeemed ones of heaven. And
now that he has gone to his reward, gone to
Christ, whose spirit he 30 deeply compre-
hended and exemplifed, gone TO God, whose
all-embracing love he priced SO dearly and
manifested to certain degree in his own
life, we can not help saying as did Beza when
he heard of Calvin's death, "Life will be less
sweet and death less bitter" Especially will
this be true of you who sustained to him the
relation of wife, son, daughter, and sister.
Life in the future will be less sweet, because
the great heart that enveloped you in Its
wonderful depths of love will do so no long
er. Neither will his lips speak TO you the
words of counsel and cheer which you all SO
eagerly sought. Even in the days of sick
ness, such was your faith in his wisdom and
Judgment that unconsciously you found
yourselves coming to Father for advice.
But all this is ended, and thenceforth life is
less sweet, but then death is less bitter; for,
while the home on earth has been robbed OF
its dearest treasure, the home over yonder
has been enriched. Earth has one less loved
one, but heaven has one more to bid you
welcome when the sands of life shall have
ebbed away. Never again can this loved one
come to you, but you can, as SAID the Psalm-
ist. 90 to him. Then mourn not as those
who have no hope. The separation which
causes you pain and fills your hearts with
grief is but for moment, then, not as
strangers but as loved ones expected, will
YOU go hence. Neither let your heart be
troubled, for with the promises of God be-
fore me can say that he whom you love is
not dead, but sleepeth calmly upon the bosom
of his God. Awake him not; let him sleep.
In the family, in the church, III the grange,
and public life, we shall miss him more than
words can express. But confident that God
knows better than we when our work is
done, we, with tears i'll our eyes and sorrow
in our hearts, say adieu to this noble life, to
this friend, husband, father, and child of
God. As we look into his face for the last
time, we say he is gone, but not wholly gone;
his influence remains, and the memory of
his brave, earnest, generous life is ours.
Cherish them gratefully; make them sources
of inspiration in your work for men, and
links which shall bind you to Heaven and
God.

FASHION WEDDING
Under the Marriage Bell at a Newport
Villa.

NEWPORT, Il. L., Aug. 2l.
The marriage OF Francis Strout of New
York TO Miss Emily Meredith Read, daughter
of Gen. Meredith Read, ex- minister to Greece
this morning, at the residence of the latter,
was an exceptionally brilliant affair The
engagement attracted much attention, owing
to the fact that the parties occupy promi-
nent position in society and both have dist.n-
guished ancestry. The presents were costly,
magnificent and protuse. The ceremony was
performed by Right Rev. Henry c. Potter
Assistant Bishop of New York, and Rev.
George NJ. Gill, Rector of Trinity church in
this city. The drawing room scene was a
most brilliant one. The bridegroom with his
best man, Geo. A. Dillaway of New York,
awaited the arrival of the party in the draw
ing room, and as the last strains of march
died out the ceremony proceeded. At its
conclusion a reception was held by the couple
both receiving the congratulations of all
present. In the afternoon they started on
their wedding trip, which will extend to Eur
ope. The floral arrangements were on an
unprecedented scale and the affair was the
most magnificent ever witnessed in New
port.
