THOMAS P. JOHNSON.-- Last tribute of respect to our departed brother, T. P. Johnson, who died June 10th, after a protracted illness of more than four months. Whereas, In the afflictive dispensation of an All-Wise Providence, one of our most exemplary members has been removed to that bourne from whence no traveller returns; and whereas, his bereaved family has been deprived of the counsel of an affectionate husband, a kind and tender-hearted father, and the community at large, of a good neighbor and citizen, the purity of whose motives, and the rectitude of whose intentions no one would dare call in question; and whereas, his exemplary Christian deporment affords unmistakable evidence to his surviving friends and relatives, that he has received that welcome plaudit, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant, thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many; enter thou in to the joy of thy Lord;" and believing the death of such a Baptist deserves a brief notice; therefore be it Resolved, 1st, That we will bow with humble submission at this afflictive dispensation of an All-wise Providence. 2nd. That his exemplary Christian deportment is worthy the imitation of us all. 3rd. That we will ever cherish an affectionate remembrance for the memory of our departed brother. 4th. That a page in our church book be consecrated to his memory. 5th. That to his bereaved family we tender our heartfelt condolence. 6th. That a copy of the above preamble and resolutions be furnished his bereaved family, and the same be sent ot he Index for publication. Done by order of the church in conference, at Antioch, Troup county, Ga., June 22nd, 1872. R. H. Jackson, Moderator. W. P. Edmondson, Clerk.
