Sargent - which occured yesterday at 5 A.M., after a lingering illness of rheumatism. Besides his family - wife, four sons and one daughter, the deceased is survived by four brothers - Buck, John, Homer and Bud of Texas. Not only will he be missed by his family, but the community will feel deeply his loss as they recall his living expressions of faith and the charitable deeds of service he so willingly practiced in daily association with his fellow men. However much his departure may be realized by all, we must remember that it is our duty to bow in humble submission to the will of Him whose authority to take is as right as it is to give. Now, to his bereaved wife and children, who will most keenly feel the loss of his daily deeds of kindness - the foundation on which the happiness and prosperity of that Christian home was so firmly established - we say to them weep not, but rejoice as you realize the peace and rest he is now enjoying in that Mansion of Love, which, no doubt, seems nearer to you than ever before because of your dearest earthly treasure's home there. His interment took place yesterday at 2 o'clock, his pastor, Jas. H. Leslie of the M.E. Church, South Camp Hill, officiating.
