BROWN - In Hollidaysburg, May 23, A. Holliday Brown, aged 24 years, He 
was a member of the Presbyterian church, and had been a student at 
Lincoln University for four years, preparing to enter the Christian 
Ministry. His leading desire was to go as a missionary to his own race 
in Africa. He spent two vacations in teaching freed men in Virginia, 
and was much respected by white and colored among whom he lived. His 
health failing, he came home to die among his friends, sweetly 
realizing and triumphantly proclaiming to those around him, the power 
and sustaining grace which faith in our blessed Lord and Savior alone 
can give.  B.
