Moon, deceased. His destb occurred at
3:20 o'clock on the morning of January

weeks, at bis home in Tionesta, Pa.
Tbe passing of tbls excellent citizen
was s shock lo the entire community In
which a greater portion of his correct and
honorable life bad been spent, and tbe
sinoerest grief has been expressed by
everyone wbo bas ever known or come in

came to this section with bis parents, and
on May 1st, 1883, be was united in mar
riage witb Miss Anna, daughter of Mr.

blm. In young manhood be chose the
avocation of carpenter and wagon maker,
and a better mecbanio or more conscienti
ous workman would be hard to find.
Many yeara ago be began work with
Messrs. Suowden A Clara in this place
and upon the dissolution of that firm Mr.
Moon continued his employment with
Mr. Scowden, and for more than ten
years paat there bave been few working
days that be bas not been found at bis
post, Aa an employe and aureealile com
panion a bond of greatest friendship grew
up between the employer aod employed
which was broken only by this very sad
a-'d unexpected death,
Mr. Moon's exemplary Christian life
was an inspiration lo all with whom he
came in contact. While never In the least
neglecting bis work, be still found a way
to give much lime tc work in Ibe cburcb,
and aa clasa leader in the M. E. church be

always bad a well prepared lesson for
tbose wbo attended. Faithful, loyal snd

respect of all our cltlzeus, aud by all, tbls
quiet, unassuming Christian gentleman

sequies. IN MEMO RI AM.
We, a committee appointed by the
Brotherhood Bible Class of the M. E.
church, of which the late Reuben W,
Moon was a laitbful and efficient mem
ber, resolve that while it was the wisdom
of Almighty God to oall from our midst
our beloved brother, and wbo said come
up higher "thou good aod faithful ser
vant; ihou bast been faithful of a few
things, I will make thee ruler of many
things; enter thou into tbe joy of thy
Lord," we deeply deplore tbe demise of
our worthy brother, but lealize and are
assured tbat our great loss is bis eternal
gain.
Resolved, Tbat a copy of these resolu
tions shall be aprtad on the minutes of
the Brotherhood Bible Class, and a copy
of tbe same presented to tbe bereaved
family of tbe deceased.
