In his conduct." and so friendly and

smile; his genial countenance; his hap

and Joyful aspect; his checiful disposi
tion; his icudy and keen wit und his
thoughtful and sustained humor have
eudcuied him to our heaits.
Duilng his sojourn among us we havo
learned to love him for his many
estimable qualities and his cver-ieti call
ing amiability, Ho came to us a
uti anger fathei less, motheiless und
alone; ho goes to his heavenly lewaul
thilco blessed and ci owned with the
gintltude, love und affection of a gilef
stricken und sorrowing community,
"ills life wus gentle, and the elements
So inlNCii In Mini, thut natuio might stand
And tay to all tho vv 01 Id This is a man."
