sad impression that the suddei

bestowed upon US. when the re

OF the Great book to the page that
bore the record OF his long lived
life. 1t revealed TO his supreme
recoliec,ion. that it was called

that gave 1t. Well may we weep
for our departed friend, and sy M

people.

his duty TO his family. and to the

OF which he was a member, and
an honored one. Little incidents
in the past life. may be called to
many a readers mind. But.
whether ia that Great book a
