conversation, lie was an active member and
liberal supporterof the Methodist church in
Athens, and be will be sincerely mourned by
the membership as well as the eutire commu
nity-
Although a cripple for the last years of his

ways cheerful and happy. His hearty greet
ings, always extended to those whom he met,

years uud honors, like a shock of corn fully
ripe," he has been taken to his reward.
