aged S4 years, 3 months and III days.
DIR. Young was born in Massachusetts,;
was educated at jefferson College, Wash
ington county, Pa, and at the theological
Seminary of Allegheny, Pa. Shortly alter
his admission to the ministry IN 1o32, he
received a call to the Presbyterian church
of Butler, and came here and became Its
pastor, preaching his first sermon here and
living with and serving his people here for
a period of 35 years. That he labored with
and served them faithfully and well Is
shown by them and all citizens who knew
him, now uniting in praise OF him and JOIN
ing in the one opinion and expression, that
a good man has departed. His labors were
many and long, but he now rests, and all
say, "Well done, good and faithful ser
want"
The funeral services over the remains OF
DIR. Young were held in the Presbyterian
church on Tuesday afternoon last, and they
were impressive to the greatest degree.
We have witnessed many such occasions,
but never was more impressed than on this
one His six sons, two OF them ministers,
were his pail bearers and bore the coffin
with his remains into the church and
placed il before the altar. A large num-
ber of grand children and relatives fol-
lowed The number of the clergy present
was much larger than usual on such occa-
sions, nearly all denominations being repre-
sented. Rev. 0ller, present pastor OF the
church, had charge OF the order OF the eX-
ercises. Rev. London read the Scripture
| lesson; Rev. Mckee lead in prayer; Rev.
Harnish announced a hymn; Rev. Oller
then gave a statement of the work of DR..
fha ahn
services. also dwelling upon his pure life
and good name and fame as a man and a.
pastor. The venerable Rev. DIR. White
followed, paying feeling tribute to his
friend and co-laborer of many years IN the
ministry. He was followed by Rev. Loyal
Young Graham, of Philadelphia, who came
from that distant city to see the remains OF
his old friend and teacher and to pay his
tribute to his memory. Rev. Graham's ad-
dress was eloquent and tender, his closin &
farewell apostrophe, looking down upon
the remains being exceedingly touching.
Rev. W. o. Campbell, of Sewickley, Pa,
followed and also paid tender and beau
tiful tribute to his old friend and early in
structor. The pure character and plous
life of DIR. Young were well told by hev.
Campbell. Rev. Barnett, OF Washington
College, Pa, closed the tributes with a
lew DuC very appropriate iehalho III GA
these addresses one feature of DIR. 1oung's
character was emphaSized-that it. had not
single fault or blemish; that he was
never known to utter harsh word of or
to be in anger towards anyone; that his
mind was so evenly balanced and well tenn
pered as to offend none.
After these tributes Rev. Prugh gave out
the closing hymn and Rev. Graham pro
nounced the benediction. The remains
were taken to the North Cemetery, where
they now lay, in the place and town which
DR.. Young loved above all other places,
and where he desired to die and to be
buried.
1t should be stated that DR.. Young was
aH author of much ability. His commen-
taries on the books of Ecclesiastes and
Proverbs in the Bible are regarded as
works of great merit, and his little book
entitled ''From Dawn to Dusk" which is
review of his life work, is much priced by
all so fortunate as to possess copy OF 1t.
