JOHN NICHOLSON

with the departure OF John Nichoi-
son from this life. one of Gods noble
men have indeed been called home.
That is the testimony of au who had
tho privilege OF knowing him. lie was
kind-hoarted and gentle. and yet vil-
faint as o. lion in the defense of truth.
lle was honest and faithful, mselhsh
as few ever ready 90 serve bis God
ana his friends. and at the Same time
there WAS ROOM iu his big heart for
on mankind. no know John Nicholson
was 90 esteem and love him.
John Nicholson was for many years
associated with the peseret News, and
his ability both as am exponent OF
truth and dialocticiau was amply
demonstrated during those years
Like an who live in the light. Dee was

ing even Co the dividing asunder of
soul and spirit and of the Joints and
marrow" Co speak n the language
OF holy writ
As speaker john Nicholson had
few peers His mind was well stored
with knowledge. He was clear
logical thinker, and had the great
gift OF ready expression. His voice
was strong, but musical and ho had
that personal magnetism. or whatever
the mysterious power is called. that
attracts and holds the attention Of
audiences. when speaking on the
principles Of the Gospel ho was always
INSTRUCTIVE, because his whole soul
was devoted 10 that great theme, and
Dr. had bis hearers with him, because
they knew that whatever be preached
he believed and practised.
one OF the notable lectures delivered
by John Nicholson IN this city was that
on the Tennessee Massacre. 1n this
he held up TO the light the true inc
wardness Of the anti" Mormon" agita-
tlon. traced it 90 It's sources and point

That was John Nicholson and the
last sentence became almost prophetic.
For, On defense OF the Gospel. he
literally gave his life. He did not take
time for such rccreauons as other men
deem a necessity He thought spoke.
wrote and labored almost necessarily.
and finally h,s magnificent intellect
gave way long before his physical
strength was exhausted.
John Nicholson has departed but he
