In Wellsboro, August 2d, 1863,,by Andrew Crowl,:
Es.q„ Mr. DARWIN FIELD, to Miss LDRAINA
TORPY, both of Delmar, Pa.
In Charleston,* August Ist, 1863, of Diphtheria,
HELEN JOHNSON, daughter of Mrs. Lydia Jane
Johns on, in the 16th year of her age.
In Wellsboro, July 31st nit, OTIS L. GIBSON,
M. D., at the age of 56.
The subject of the above notice, was born June Bth, 1807.
He removed to this Borough from Vermont, In the summer
of 1830, and began the practice of medicine and surgery. In
a* country comparatively new and and thinly settled* with
few roads to facilitate travel, his practice was one of arduous
labors, frequent exposure' to the severest weather 'and ex.
haustiug fatigue. Few physicians have accomplished more
in the same number of years. He rode far and near. He
never thought of self-comfort, or Interest; and la the dead
of night, in the coldest winter, be would cheerfully visit a
poor patient in some distant part of the county, though than
was no prospect of remuneration.
Th-: Gibson was a physician of rare skill and superior sci
entific attainments; He was devotedly attached to his pro*
fessien and followed hot with 6yft Sfrfvfoe Ibr the sake of
gain, hut like a true servanVof Christ, doing the will of God
from, the heart. A man of great firmness and decision of
character; he was always candid and out-spoken. At the bed
side of his patients, be was a mau of few words, but the
hours in his absence were givan to reflective study for those
under his care. Those who have been intimately acquainted
with, and bare known his practica, agree In the opinion that
few physicians have had so successful a practice Like every
scientific man, he had an lunate detestation of quackery and
charlatanism. To the eminence of a physician, be added the
brighter luster of high Christian, graces and virtues. Dr.
Gibson received the rite of confirmation, thus becoming a
communicant in the Episcopal Church, at the bands ef Bish
op Onderdonk, at his first visitation to .this village, October
20th; 1839. From that time be continued as Vestryman and
Worden, in St. Poors Parish, an earnest and failhfUl worker,
nntil through weakness and disability,he was obliged to re
linquish all active duties in the church, as well as in his pro
fession.
Pt»r about ten years past he was unable to walk or stand
wUhoat'aniatance: Though free from pain* it requited great
patience U sit still itt retfgnad submission. But In bit case,
patience bad her perfect work. He wai ready to say ‘•Thy
will, 0 God/not mine be dene,” and those who knew how
uniformly humble, resigned and cheerful he was, will realize
the mercy and wisdom of the Almighty, who maketh “all
things work together for good-to them that love him.?-
To his family. he was the center of thought and love, and
they will most feel the pang of eeparatlon. May a trust in
that Power who tempers the winds to the fleecelesa lambs,
assuage the widow’s grief and dry th* tears of the fatherless.
The acquaintance of the writer with the deceased,l* filled
with pleasant memories, and sweet experiences. Rone could
visit him without being made bet ter, more spiritual and more
thankful to God, for the grace of the. Gospel of his blessed
Son. A good and noble man has passed, away, mourned by
all. Ho will not be forgotten; some *lll .remember him as a
faithful family physician; soma will love him as a benefactor
and friend; others, Ua' co-worker In the church, it will be
the happy privilege to think bow real, bow bright, and sanc
tiiying to all around him, were the graces and virtues exhib
ited during bis sickness. He bad a desire to depart and be .
with Christ. “For more than twenty years,” said be,«Christ
bos been my only hope.” His death was sweet and peaceful;
he fell asleep in Jesus. He fought a good fight, he kepi the
faith, be has finished bis 'course, he has ceased from his la
bors, he has entered into his rest.;
May the Lord welcome him with the words of approbation
—“Well done, good and faithful servant, enter thou Into the
Joy of thyLorti.” “Blessed are the dead who dieluthe Lord
from hence forth, yea saiih the Spirit, that they may rest
from' their labors, and their works do follow them. Amen.”
