father;
That he fulfilled to a singular de-
gree all of his duties to God, and to
his fellowmen;
That he delighted in many, and I'M
assuming charities, and willingly gave
to them of his substance, and his time,
a large and unusual measure;
That his memory will be cherished
by us among our best recollections,
and his well-spent life will always be
an example of the complete perform
ance of all Christian duties;
That HE held the Faith and is
now, as we submissively hope, in the
enjoyment of that reward promised to
His faithful servants by the Almighty
God, whom he served SO faithfully.
May he rest in peace!
