I0GT0 mover O6Eu "
John Jaspex, the Moses" Of his day, !
like the tail grapd old giant oak, tow
eriDg far and nigh amidst the many
little pigmie Row seeking fame and
fortune as leaders OF our people. He
is one Of the few real eminent, famous
almost the world over, having passed
his four score years Truly he must
have been born under the lucky
star. May that star shine on and lead
gently 10 the 9Th score years and at
last crown CT dlndems be placed nd
on his 8hend, ard the tears wiped
from his eyes By his Saviour and God
whom he has Worshiped and served for
low these manv years.
Up to this time there has been
hut one Rev. Sam Jones like the Rev.
Jasper. Many have tried to sway the
| people and become famous All have
failed. There never was but one Solo
mon and God made him the wisest Of
all. Les no man aspire 20 be wiser.

feeling. The war horse in Zion Wal
