Fitzgerald, Ga, Nov. 9TH.
The members of Prospect Bap-
t1st Church in the County of Ben
Hill met today Nov. 9TH, the regu-
lar appointed time for meeting, The
usual cheerful greeting was not there
but instead a gloom of sadness pre-
vailed, for our beloved Pastor had
fallen asleep since last we met. One
month ago today he stood in the
stand that is vacant today, although
very feeble on that occasion but de-
l1vered on that day one of the abest
sermons OF his life. Instructing the
young people to go forward in use
tulness and to grow up strong in
Christian citizenship ,admonishiug
them that sooner or later the affairs
of the church and state would be III
trusted to their care. He preached
then as though he would never come
back and today the stand is vacant
and sad indeed it is for our minds

grand old pastor Rev. A. B. Finley
has admonished us and warned us
OF the trials and tribulations that
would come. We wish we were per-
mltted to write the history of this
veteran Of the cross He was in his
elghty-tltth year and truly the his
tory of his life would be one of In
spiration. No doubt but many
time he was misunderstood or could
not be understood by his hearers and
they went away with a dislike, but
to those who could grasp the truths
and the true intent of his speech
loved him. We as a church mourn
his death, because we understood
him and loved him. We tried to sing
songs of cheer and drive the sorrows
away but the sorrows still remain.
Therefore be it Resolved that we

sympathy to the bereaved family and

ion and father, we have lost true
