MEMORIAM

William Henry Harrison Ingle was
born in Miami county, Ohio, in the
year of 1858, making him sixty-six
years ofage at the time he was de-
ceased.
When a young man he joined the
Methodist church on probation. Lat
err at Clear Lake, Wis, he joined the
Congregational church and while
member of said church began studys
ing the Sabbath question, which re-
suited in his being convinced that he
was not observing the right day as
Gods Sabbath. He became Seventh
day Adventist about the year 1896,
and joined the Seventh>day Adventist
church at Amery, Wis. In this
churh he served in the capacity of SUI
perintendent of the Sabbath school
and also as church elder. Later he
united with the S. d. A. church at
dysmith, Wis, and in this church
be also served in the same capacity as
he did in the Amery church.
Nearly four years ago he moved to
Clearwater Lake, Wis, and soon con-
nected with the S. ID. A. church here.
In this church be had served as jani-
tor in most commendable way. He
was very prompt in respect to his du-
| ties.
| Twenty-one years ago this past
Xmaa be was united in marriage to
the one whom be has now left wild
ow. He died Monday forenoon Janu-
airy 9Th, 1920, 10 his own home with
out moments warning. He fell to
the floor with only few gasps for
breath; he was lifeless corpse. His
wife sprang to his side and calling
him by his given name, asked him to
speak, but consciousness had left him
with no word of parting to his life
companion. His sudden death was
not only a shock to his wife, but to
the dwellers in Clearwater Lake.
| He was lover of music and at the
time of his death he had some violin
pupils. His call at this time appears
to be Providential one. 1t came at
the beginning of the New Year. To
him the first Sabbath of the New Year,
and the last one spent on earth was
blessed good one. His testimony Civ
en- that day was considered by those
who heard him to be the very best he
had ever given. He stated that his
determination was to serve God to the
best of his ability. His resolution be
stated was not to do one known
wrong thing, and by the sustaining
grace of God to be an overcomer.
The call came to him upon his re-
turn from the Murray store. and there
he expired in his own home in the
presence of his wife, and without
pain or lingering sickness. He
Il
answered the summons to now cease
fighting life's battles and to take a
rest in sleep, and there we leave him.
He is in the hands of merciful, low
ling, Heavenly Father who doeth all
things well, and to Him and His care
we commend him. Peace to be his
ashes.
| In behalf of his bereaved compan-
ion, return thanks to all who have
in any way contributed to her relief
in this the saddest affection of her
life. The call that has deprived Sis
ter Ingle of her life companion. there
by making her q widow, vouchsafes
to her the many precious promises OF
God to care for the widow and on His
strong. almighty arm she may heav-
lily lean, and find Him an unfailing
support.
