Church, of Morrice Mich.

In behalf of the church, we would
gratefully recognize his useful service dur.
ing the years Of health and vigor which he
sr snt in our midst.
Devout and earnest in experience, and
exemplary in life, he ever cherished strong
convictions of the truth and reality of the
Gospel, as the power of God unto saliva
tion.
Spared to ripe old age of 81 years. he
has been gathered home like shock OF
corn fully ripe.
In his usually health, until within few
days of his death, his removal is well nigh
q translation tothc mansions Jesus has
gone before to prepare.
May his mantle fall upon his surviving
household. upon us. and upon the church
which for so many years he faithfully
served.
