He united with tlie Methodist
church at the age of fifteen and
ever since that time, has lived a
devoted christian life, always
ivadv and williuir to do all he
as lie svas. It seems he possessed
all the good traits of character
and none of the bad which is so
rarely seen in one so young.
We had pictured such a bright
future for him; and it seems so
strange and mysterious to us,
who loved'him so \fell, that he
«hould be taken just as he was
entering young manhood. "But
God works in a mysterious way
his wonders to perform." Our
Heavenly Father needed him or
else he would not have been tak-
en. In humble submission we
bow to Him, whodoeth all things
well.
