dren-seven sons and seven daughters.
After her death he married Sarah Trick
who remained with him a few years and
then joined the vast throng who have
passed over the river.
uncle Daniels descendants are nu-
merous' He has more than fifty grand
children and as many great grandchil-

are following the various vocations of
life. The head of a prolific family has
peeh iald low, but his posterity will per-
petuate his name.
The subject of this notice entered life,s
arena almost at the very dawn of the
nineteenth century and had he lived a
Drlet period longer, he would have seen
~ close. His life covers several epochs
IN our country's history, and for this
reason, II no other, we feel called upon
10 revere his memory. We have heard
nm reclte the events of long zone years,
anu ms enthusiasm was like that of a
child in reciting its first dreams of life.

are spent in retrospection, as regards
TINS world. They extract much enioy-
ment from the shadowy realms Of the
Feebleness of mind and body
make the present a burden, and nothing
appears on the horizon of the future to
klndle the worldly ambition of one who
mas lived almost a century.
The deceased became a member of the
NJ. Il. Church in 1851. He was a man of
remarkable religious fervor,and would
display his zeal during times of
religious excitement in his community.

the light that radiates from the city of

the joys that await all who have
washed their robes and made them
white in the blood of the lamb, was
welcomed by the sweet music of the
hosts that never cease to praise the
Lord.
