Inthe domestic circle he w as a kind husband and father and a neigh-borly neighbor, and interested in what he thought would build uphis community as well as the country at large. As a christian hewas consistent in his business relations with his fellow men, andat his home, and regular in the use of the public means of grace-And when he came to confront death he only seemed to want tolive for the sake of his family. After he took a supernumeraiyrelation to the conference, he taught in the public schools of thecountry and tilled his small farm, and often overtaxed his strengthas a husbandman. And after twelve months of gi*eat afflictionfrom a complication of diseases, while surrounded by wife andchildren, mother, brother and sister, he ceased to toil and sufferJune 10,1897, and entered into the rest that remaineth to the peo-ple of God. We sympathize with the grief smitten wife andchildren, and his mother, brothers and sisters. T. S. Walkek. .MTINUTES OF THE OONKERKNCR. « REV. DANIEL UlCIIARDSOK.
