Suddenly and unexpectedly a devoted wife and four young and lovely children are bereaved of the head and pride of the family; and neighbors are called to pay the last tribute of respect to the one they knew but to love. Surrounded by all his heart desired, this amiable man went to rest as the wearied child to his slumber. He had taken no part in the busy and active affairs of life; his disposition and temperament led his to seek enjoyment at the fireside and in the social circle-there his affable conduct and lovely qualities made him shine, and knit his friends to him by indissoluble bonds. In all the relations of his life his conduct was marked with frankness, honesty, and good humor. Aught never ruffled his brow; a harsh expression rarely escaped his lips. He was for years a consistent church member. "The soul of the origin divine, God's glorious image freed from clay, In heaven's eternal sphere shall shine A star of day." C.
