A Good Man Gone

Uncle Henry Smelser has passed
away. He expired at his home
near Shiloh, on the night of the
10Th.
Uncle Henry came to this com.
munity from Greene county about
10 years ago. He was a member
Of the Methodist church and was a
noble, faithful man of God.
He enjoyed religious services
very much and was always ready
to do what he could for the chris
tian cause. Oft have l seen him
standing in the church, his face
illumined with celestial light,
speaking of Christ and His good
ness. In my minds eye, see him
now and his heavenly, faithful
countenauce makes me feel lifted up
and strengthened.
We are grieved to lose him. We
miss HIM so much, but in reality,
he is not dead. Only his body
rests beneath the sod. HIS noble
soul has gone to the great Glver of
life, who doeth all things well.
He has not lived in vain. His
influence lives in the hearts of men
and will continue to live through
out the coming ages.
His words of kindness have been
felt by many, many hearts. The
seeds of kindness and love he has
sown will spring forth in after years
and bear golden fruit in abundance.
Weep not for him. He has
journeyed to brighter cline.

SAMUEL PAFFORD DEAD.
A Tribute to His Memory by n
Friend of the Family.


and Bette Pafford, was born June
20, 1888, was converted and joined
the Methodist Church in August,
1908, under the pastorate of Rev.
Mr.. Blackwell, and died after a
short illness March 10, 1910, aged
81 years, s months and IL days.
Funeral services were conducted
by his pastor, Rev. Albert Wilson,
assisted by Rev. E. w. Nelson.
His body was laid to rest beside his
mother, to await the time when the
dead shall awaken in the morning
Of joy.
He was quiet young man, and
was never at any period of his life
immoral. He was reared by Chris
tian parents, who taught him the
way of life from childhood, and he
never seemed to have any desire to
depart from his teaching. He was
content to remain at home and
share with his brothers and sisters
the responsibilities which rested
upon them. He was young man
of high aspirations; he desired al
education, and l believe he thought
of entering school this winter, but
after the death of his mother, which
occurred in December, he settled
down in. his brave devotion to his
father and sisters to remain at
home and give his time to them.
| spent most of the winter with
the family, and every day was inn
pressed with the beauty of that
boys life; he was SO utterly unset
fish, and never seemed to think of
his own comfort but WAS all the
time looking out for others, and
yesterday as they carried his body
away from the home to the church.
yard, the question with so many
was, why should Sam, the young
hopeful and helpful boy die; why
should he, just entering a noble
young manhood, turn aside from
his companions to seek the covert
of silent room that he might shut
from his sight the world to which
he must bid long adieu?
Who can explain the mystery
that the brave, the gifted and the
good should die? Only infinite
love can solve the problem. There
is an Immortality beyond; the good
die to live again-close their eyes
on earth that they may open them
in Heaven.
His sickness from the first was of
such malignant type that it shut
him out from all intelligent com
munication, but his every day life
gives full assurance to friends and
loved one that he was ready to make
the change for better world. No
doubt he has met his mother there.
We can not see with our short
sighted vision why his young life
with it's bright prospects should
end SO soon, but we are thankful
that he lived among us, and now
that he has gone to God we will
try to give him back willingly; and
though there are hearts crushed
with grief, we feel assured that
Sam has been called to a higher
and better life.
God holds the key, he knows the way,
He guides us with unerring hand.
Sometime with fearless eye we II see,
And then, yes, then we'll understand.
A word to his brothers and young
men friends: You will all agree
with me in the estimate of his char
acter. l haven't scrubbed any more
on this paper than L have said of
him when he was here among us in
life and health, and l, and perhaps
others. in our own minds were pre-
