As a church member, his christian walk was unwavering and worthy to be imitated; for 35 years he was a consistent member of the Baptist church at Macedonia, filling the office of deacon to the full satisfaction of the brethren. He bore his six years of affliction with christian fortitude and resignation. A kind husband and loving father is gone to the rest which awaits all the faithful. We part with him in hopes of meeting him beyond that dark river, where the wicked cease to trouble and the weary are at rest. His funeral was preached at Macedonia church on Tuesday, March 23rd, by the Rev. J.B.S. Davis of Newnan, from the 30th Chapter of Mark and from the 34th verse to the close of the 37th, after which is body was consigned to its resting place in the silent grave, by the side of his first wife, at Macedonia cemetery.
