fcStreet Presbyterian church, read the

A male quartette, led by John T.
"Watklns, sang a, number of selections,
und a touching address was delivered
by Hon. H. M. Edwards, u life-long
friend and neighbor of deceased. Ho
said:
It may bo considered as somewhat un
usual that a layman should say un thing
on an occasion like this. And I would bo
ory unwilling to break upon an ancient
mid an honorable custom weie It not that
I speak a few words today In compliance
with the urgent toquest of the members
of this bereaved family. Hut this request
Is not my only excuse. 1 am Author ln
sulicd by my friendship for the dopaitod,
my knowledge of his character and my
admiration of his many virtues. After
nil, why should not one filend say a few
woids about another who Is gone? AVhy
should ho not weave a gniland of affec
tion and place It upon bis friend's casket'.'
And why should ho not scatter Howeis
upon bis giavo and shed teals ot logtot
and sonow?
Everyone In my piesencp cm well wiy:
"I have lost a filend." Sir. Pi lee and
myself came to this city in the samu
ear, and we have been next door neigh
bors for nearly tbltty yeais. I can salc
l.v say that theic Is no one peison, out
side of my family, whom I have seen,
spoken to and shaken hands with of ton
er than Mr. Pi lee. This Is particularly
true as to the List five yeais. Ho savo
me his confidence and I participated In
bis joys and sonows. 1 am therefore
glad of the opportunity to speak of him
us I found him and to tell vou what
manner ot a man my filend was.
I know you will agiee with me when I
wiy that ourl friend was u great lover of
nature. He enjoyed the gladness of
s-piing and the glory of summer. He was
fond of floweis and trees and the things
that grow out of the earth. We find the.
evidences of this around us. The vines
that adoin the chinch building next door
and the trees In front of his own home,
as well as In front of mlnci were his
gifts and were planted by him. He
watched their growth caiefully and lov
liijily and tended thera with willing
hands. About three weeks before he died
be s-ald to me: "When I am gone, if I
leave nothing else to be remcmbeied by,
these trees in flout of our homes will
be my monuments."
I may say also of our filend that ho
was n stui dy, stalw.nt man. Were It not
for the accidents he met in the later per
iod of ids life, lie would probably have
lived ten years longer. He was cast in
the heioic mold. He was not of the typo

This was not only true of him physically,
but mentally ns well. Although not edu
cated In tho learning of tho schools, ho
was endowed with mental vigor. IIo had
his own opinions about men and things
and they wcro generally of a positive
character. He owed his strength to a
great extent to the country of his birth
nnd to his ancestry. Ho camo from tho
county of Merionethshire, lit North
Wales, whoso early emigrants were
largely Instrumental In founding the
Welsh Baiony, around Philadelphia, moro
especially tho township of Merlon. Ho
enmo from among tho rugged hills ot
North Wales and he spent his boyhood
days amidst Alp-llko scenery. A few
hours' Journey would take him to tho
base of cloud-capped Snowdon, nnd not
far away ho could sco Pllmllmmon nnd
Cnder, IdrK with their bold headlines. I
mention this because It accounts hugely
for his manly vigor, physical and mental,
nnd for his stiong, sturdy character. He
was of tho hills and was solid like them.
But I can say much moro than this
about our friend. He lived a correct
life; ho was honest und honorable In nil
his dealings; ho had u very tender heart;
ho was generous and ehailtablo; ho was
loyal to his fi lends; ho honoied all tho
ties of domestic life. Happy are those of
whom It can be said: "Ho was a sood
citizen, a good husband, a good father
and a good filend."
The memory of the departed and of bis
kindly virtues will remain with his fam
ily and f i lends as a treasuie for many
years to come.
At the close of the service, the re
mains were viewed by many people,
who had been intimately associated and
acquainted with Mr. Price. The Inter
