EDWARD KIRK MEIER.
Dual, December 9th. at Lafayette College, Radon, Pa., of con
gestion of the brain, Edward Kirk Meigs, third sou of Rev. Mat
thew. and Mary Gould Meigs, of Pottstown, Pa., in the eighteenth
year of Usage.
In giving notice of our departed friends, the writer of this brief
sketch la aware that we are often an:vetted of averchabging the
picture. .And yet, in the youthful spliject of this notice, the spirit
of religion was so winningly manifested, there Was in him so much
to admire and love, that it seems due to the glory andgrace of GM,
which made hint what he was, that he should not be left to sink,
unnoticed, into the grave. His death is only another iiluatration
of that tad but beautiful provition of Providence, by which the
beet are called-tint.-
He was, naturally, of a biatnelesis character, exempt. from guile;
of great tenderness of feeling. His whole character is well exhi
bited in word§ expressed by bit bertaied pardnte to'the writer of
this notice: He never did enact that,caused us arang." He was
a. Christian of that class, of whom it may be said, there mixer was
a time when they did not sewn to leire' the SaViour. • Even at his
early age, this great lesson of the Cross was cut deeply in bis heart,
that he was self-sacrificing for ethers.
The promise he gave of future usefolnetis Was great, in that, even
during his boyhood, his voice was heard in the local prayer-meet
ing. In the retirement of home, howconsiderate, how amiable and
exemplary he wee, they, only can tell aright, who feel that, in the.,
brother and eon, they have been bereaved of one whose lose to
them can ueverbe replaced. And they doubtless feel that It' his
loss but bring them nearer to_the heaven he has entered, even .his
absence shall be for their, ood.

In the year 1855 he wile ordained an elder in the First Presbyte
