Passed Away.
PAUL MARTIN.

wears grew mucn worse ABOUT
ten days ago. His physician
found he was suffering from a
severe attack of erysipelas. His
physical condition was such that
he could not stand the malady
and on last Friday morning, July
9TH, he passed quietly away at
the age of 30 years, a months
and % days.
Paul was a twin son of the late
Christian and Lydia j. Martin
two miles south Of McConnells-
burg.
Most of his life was spent at
the old homestead. Paul was a
dutiful son, loving brother, and
kind to every one. He was of a
most genial disposition and be-
loved by all who knew him. He
was a special favorite of the FAM
ily and will be greatly missed.
But we trust their loss will be
his gain.
During the pastorate of J. V.
Roger, Paul united with the M.
Z. church on probation. When
his physical condition would per-
nit he spent much time in search
ing the scripture, meditating on
eternal things, and in prayer for
the welfare of his soul. He also
found much pleasure in joining
with his mother in singing spir-
itual songs before bowling around
the family altar and we trust he
will sing them forever around
the throne of our Heavenly Faith
er.
