Stephenson, Jr. January 2002 The Baptist Church of Christ, Bethel (Georgia), in Conference, held the following proceedings: Whereas, in the mysterious providence of God, our much beloved brother and Senoir Deacon, John Chapman, was, in the 7th inst., suddenly called to his rest and eternal home. Resolved, That in his death the country looses an eminently valuable and honored citizen, our Church one of its strongest pillars of support, and one of its brightest examples of piety. The poor of the land are bereaved of one whose purse and home were ever open to their wants, and his bereaved family lose all completed in husband, father, and Master. Resolved, That these proceedings be published in the Christian Index, and a copy containing the same be furnished to the bereaved family. By order of the Church in Conference. S. G. Hillyer, Mod. ======================== USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free information on the Internet, data may be freely used by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
