ination, and for years labored for the spiritu
al welfare of the sparsely settled communities
in the northern part of the county, always
enforcing his teachings by a godly walk and
conversation. He was an active member and
liberal supporter of the Methodist church in
Athens, and he will be sincerely mourned by
the membership as well as the entire commu
nity.
Although a cripple for the last years of his
life, as the result of an accident, he was al
ways cheerful and happy. llis hearty greet
ings, always extended to those whom he met,
made him a welcome guest to all who were
honored with his acquaintance. " Full of
years and honors, like a shock of corn fully
ripe," lie has been taken to his reward.
The deceased leaves an aged widow, two
son (one of them D. F. PARK. the well-known
merchant of Athens), and three daughters to
mourn his loss. One of his daughters is in
Tunkhannoek with her husband, Rev. J. D.
TRACY. The funeral took place yesterday
afternoon.
