EEF, A. d RE1D.

home Monday morning, Sept 7th, 1903.
Mr.. Reid was born at Lynchburg, Va,

with his parents to La Porte, Ind, where
he learned the trade of cabinetmaking
after which he took a college course at
Wabash college, Indiana, followed by a
theological course at Lane theological
seminary graduating with honors from

time as instructor in Hebrew in the lat
ter institution. He taught school for
some time at Vevay, Ind, where he met

years in Indiana, Tennessee and Wiscon-
SIM, serving finally for nine years the

years ago; however, he was frequently
called upon to officiate at funerals and
weddings. He was an exceptional schol-
al, frequently giving private lessons in
latin in connection with his ministerial
work "a liberal, progressive thinker.
While a loyal Presbyterian until his
death his heart and mind were too large
for any sect.
His theological bent may be indicated
by the fact that he has recently read
with great admiration Harnack's What
is Christianity" and at the time of his
death had just begun the second volume
of express Whites work. The Conflict
of Science and Theology
His was choice spirit with charity
for all and malice toward none His
residence in Fulton for the past twenty
years has been daily benediction upon
our community. Most truly can it be
said "none knew him but to respect and
love him."
J.. Mrs. Reid died in 1878, during his pas
torate at Prairie du Sac, Wis, where two
years later he married Mrs. Hutchinson
of Bloomington, Ill. He accepted call
to the Fulton church in 1888. He is sur

South African Governments.

A recent number of the Boer news

describing the experiences of Boer
who went to German Southwest AT
rica In 1901 to settle there. The moral
condition of the country. he writes.
is serious. Most of the Germans have
negro wives. To find German in
the country districts, he says, with a
white wife is a rarity. AT baptism
of the child of German father and
negro mother, which he attended at
Rehoboth, two German officers were
present with their negro wives. Com
pulsory service is equally applicable
to whites and blacks, and both serve
in the ranks together. He concludes:
For my part. eighteen months ex-
perience has brought me to the con-
clusion that it is better to be slave
