Nv hatsoeyer We would chat men should
do unto you do We even so to them His
was a life OF toll and yet even among men
OF leisure, with studious tastes, it would
be difficult to find a mind stored as his
was, with facts OF history both of our own
country and foreign nations; he was
great reader, and with a very active menu
DRY he had a taste for scientific reading
beyond most men that are not students
and yet,the tiniest flower or bird was in
teresting to him and he took pleasure IN
looking at them and thinking how Won A.,
derful they were and that they were OBJ
jects of his Heavenly Fathers care. There
was nothing that came so near his heart | I
as little child. His children think of I
him as father who always sympathized
with them and whose equal it would be I
difficult to find among fathers. Until he &
was "a years old he was happy, interest r
ing old man with an anecdote appropriate I
for every occasion and a mind stored with 1 ;
poetry that he could quote at any time.
His reason became unsettled and then
came days and weeks when no peace or
lOtlitOEb Couiu bt iOuHQ IOr MIN ana eS-
pecially in the last few months he has
been heard in his nights OF misery talking
Of his Saviour and calling uron the Lord
70 help him bear his affection. He feared
The pains OF death but he passed away un- Il
Of them, and with them passed
away every line and trace of trouble and /
perplexity from the grand old face and in =
heir stead was calm peacefuiaess that
old of an enterance into that haven OF
-est that he had wished for and the glories a
1f Heaven that he had talked about and
anticipated and wondered about, where Y
here viii be no shattered intellect to mar
he progress he so much desired through Z
he eternity he tried so hard to under
'tand. His going has left an indescriba- :
Die loneliness in the hearts of those that Z
owed him.
