MEMOIR.
THOMAS Jacob Wilson.

1mf
In the passing Of Brother Thomas
j. Wilson from his earthly home to-
his Heavenly abode, James Methodist
Episcopal Church has lost its oldest
and one of its most spiritual and in
fluential members. For a period OF
more than So years Brother Wilson
was an active member of this church,
and in the coming days his counsel
his influence, and his support will be
greatly missed by both pastor and
people.
Thomas Jacob Wilson was born
near Hockessin, Del, on Feb. 10th.
1910, of Quaker parentage, and ex-
perienced the second birth in 1850,
during series of meetings conduct
ed in a school house near Union
Meeting House in which Brother
Wilson held the position of instruc-
tor. In the Fall of 1861, or Spring
of 1852, he united with this church.
He was always loyal to his church,
and faithful servant of his Lord
and Master, being ever dependable
worker in His vineyard, filling prac.
tically every Office in the church, in
Guiding that of Sunday School Supt.
Trustee, Steward, Recording Stew
ard, for SO years a Class Leader, an
exhorter, and member of the Lay
Electoral Conference. He was lib.
eral contributor to the financial sup
port of the church and the kingdom,
giving often until it hurt.
Brother Wilson was a dlligent
student of the Word of God. He
read the Bible, knew the Bible, and
loved the Bible. He was so familiar
with it that, even to his very last
days, he could repeat chapter after
chapter of it from memory. Just
a night or two before he passed
away, lying on his bed, he recited the
eighth Psalm: 30 Lord, our Lord
how excellent is thy name in all the
EARTH" etc.
He lived a prayer life, and in his
public prayers the language he used
was beautiful in its simplicity, the
a LuOu6AtS c1n0 uCOAA % OAPA Oo0Ou VI Nv
us all into the very presence of the
Lord. He was man who lived in
the conscious presence of God, and
as he neared the end of his earthly
pilgrimage, he seemed to appreciate
more and more, that close COM
munion with his Heavenly Father
which he had enjoyed so many years.
During the month of August, I
believe it was, he had quite a sinking
spell and was very near the border
land. He. told his pastor, afterward,
that during one of those days he en-
joyed an experience of ineffable bliss,
in which he said to himself, If this
is Heaven do not care to go back to
earth anymore But he awaited
the final summons until the night OF
Nov. 25th, 1919, when his noble
spirit departed this life. While he
was old, as we count the years, he re-
manned so youthful in spirit that
younger people could appreciate and
love him.
He left six children to mourn his
departure, all of whom are members
of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
and who have noble heritage in the
Cody life and example of their
father.

Had Needle and Thread In Stomach.

Charles S. Ellison, Jr., young
farmer residing on Bohemia Manor,
this county, was taken to the Jeffer-
son Hospital, Philadelphia, suffering
from what was supposed to be
appendicitis Upon undergoing an
operation, the physicians found that
his appendix was only slightly In
famed, and discovered that the
bowels had been punctured by
needle two inches long. II was
threaded with about eight inches Of
strong thread. Mr.. Ellison has no
recollection of ever swallowing the
needle, and the most plausible
theory is that it may have been
swallowed in draught of water
some time in the dark. The oper-
alton was performed successfully and
there is every chance for his re-
covery, unless peritonitis develops.
