In Memory Of ". G. COekerham

CURED q terrible boiler explosion,
which resulted in the death OF Bro
W. G. Cockerham and the more OF
less serious wounding Of several
others. There was almost total
destruction Of the machinery, irag-
men,s being scattered 10 every d.
reclion. Bro. Coekerham was en-
gagged in saving when the awful
moment came and was carried a
considerable distance. A heavy
piece ofirOn was lying across the
body which perhaps was the lnssru-
ment Of death, as his limbs were
broken and his body otherwise bad
ly crushed, though 90 one knows
Just how il was done. OF course,
death was almost instantaneoas,-a
sudden change OF worlds.
Whitfield Green COckerham was
born Dec. 2S, 1854, hence was 40
years, l month and "a days old. On
the 25lh day Of Dee, 1873, he was
married 10 Miss Sallis Lea, who
with five children survive him. He
also leaves a father, mother, three
sisters and four brothers to mourn
his sudden taking of. He first
united with the church at Jerusa.
lem. being baptized by Rev. ]. NJ
Cook. About eleven years ago he
went into the constitution Of Beth
lehem church where his member
ship continued to the day Of his
death. He was elected treasurer
Of the church and served IN that
capacity to the close Of 1899. In
rendering his resignation he made
a touching speech which will long
be remembered by those who heard
It. He gave a brief account of the
church and it's work, reported the
amount Of money paid in, and then
said: II have no doubt made mis-
takes aud may not have always
done for the best, but 1t 10 human
to err, and l hope to be forgiven" "
Saying this he took his seat COM
plelely overcome with emotion. His
love Tor his church was beautiful.
Her interest was his interest, and
he rejoiced in herprosperity. The
writer was associated with him as
pastor for five years, and | cheer
tully bear testimony to his faithful
ness. When anything was TO be
done be could be counted on to do
liberal share. He was not per-
feet, like the rest Of US he was hu
man, but it is only the truth to say
he will be sadly missed.
Bro Cockerhsm was possessed
of cheerful disposition, being sell

No Pardon

Aspecial from Washington of Jan.
2 says: Secretary Root today turned
down the application to pardon tile
members of the Fifteenth Minnesota
who are now confined in the military
prison at Fort Marion, Fla. The Sec
rotary said that after reviewing the
case he did not think the punishment
too severe, but in another six months
he might consider an application for
pardon. Nothing can be done now
unless the president takes the matter
in hand. Some of the members of
the Minnesota delegation are think
ing of taking the case direct to the
president.
