weights and measures into his books and
accounts, into his trusteeships, into his re-

prehensive love for his fellow-men.
"ro sum up his character in few words,
he was not an ordinary man. He was
gifted with an extraordinary amount of
what we call 'common-Scnse,' combined
with executive ability of high order. His
mind was acute, clear and active. His
heart was warm and sympathetic. He was
an affectionate husband, father and friend,
and above all, he was man of integrity
not only honest, he was more than that
but of integrity, defined by one of our
eminent teachers as meaning, thorough
ness, entireness, putting the same quality
Of soul into everything, great and small,
putting the same energy of conscience,
faith, love, into the smallest acts as into
the greatest
than himself with the saving virtues. He
stood the true test of Christian character,
love to God and man, blending in one, for
in the language of the same teacher. Love
is always cheerful giver. Love does not
grumble at being called on ever so often.

how much we have to be grateful for, how
little to regret. What sweet consolation
ought we to find for our grief at parting
with our beloved friend. We know he Is
safe in the keeping of his Father and ours.

shaft or costly mausoleum to commem-
crate his worth. We can best honor his
memory by initiating his virtues"
Mr.. johnson said in part: ut is not as a
minister but as u man that make these
remarks. 1t is not the brilliant but the
faithful, who arc the real promoters OF
human progress. The deceased has always
seemed to me good example OF the best
type of Friends, that stock which has
given so many useful and worthy men,
bcrs to society. Charles Warmers life has
been well lived and fully rounded, just
such a life us is pictured in Bryant's beau
tiful poem. Therefore while we feel the
deepest sympathy with the afflicted, n
family singularly united and devoted in
| their affections, We should, most of all, be
| filled with thankfulness for the useful
| life, with its rich lessons that has been
lived among us, and with hope for the
glorious morrow
