Obituary

In memory of Wiley E. Mangham. Baptist Church of Christ at Zebulon in
Conference July 11, 1861.

Whereas, The Lord, our God, who doeth all things after the manner of His
own all wise council, hath called to his reward our highly esteemed and
much beloved brother, deacon and church's clerk, Wiley E. Mangham, who
was born in Putnam county, Georgia, January 9th, 1805, married Malinda
M. Holmes of Wilkes Co., Ga., December 20th, 1827 - united with this
church November 7th 1846 being baptized by Rev. John H. Milner, elected
clerk of same January 9th 1847, and served faithfully as such till
death, never having missed a meeting all the while when well, and

Whereas, In all the beautiful consistent devoted life of our dear
brother as a model husband, father, Christian, neighbor, citizen and
officers both of the church and county he exemplified in a most forcible
and winning manner the influences of the graces of the Great Head of the
church. Tender, loving, earnest and honest in all his varied relations
in life, a consistent and devoted Christian, he added new lustre to the
Christian profession.

And Whereas, This church feels that there is a void which cannot be
filled in her midst Therefore be it
Resolved 1. That a page on her church book be left with only one name on
it, Wiley E. Mangham.
Resolved 2. That we feel our great loss to the church and the cause of
the Master in our midst in the death of our noble and devoted brother.
Resolved 3. That we feel that in his beautiful and highly pious life, we
have an example urging us to be better, nobler and more consecrated to
our Lord's service.
Resolved 4. That we tender our sympathies to the devoted daughter, our
sister Mrs. Mary J. Redding and her husband, and the grand children and
orphan wards of our deceased brother, all of whom we commend to the God
of their loved one.
Resolved 5. That these resolutions be spread on our church book and
copies furnished our county paper and the Christian Index with request
to publish same.
