On Tuesday, November 23d, 1909,
a sudden pall of gloom overshadowed
this community, when, as a flash of
lightning from out of a clear sky,
the messages went (over the wires
inai joun a. ttuueage naa compiemu
the record of a life that had been
utilized for the betterment of man
kind, and that "he was not, for God
had taken him."
To behold Mr. Rutledge in his
storo at Galilee, on Friday, Nov. 19.
the day on which he was taken ill
no one would have thought for a
moment that he was so soon to be
stricken with death, for he wa3 tlio
very picture of health, a man of ap
parent strong physique, and of i
jovial and pleasant disposition, and
to know him was to admire him, for
his sterling and upright qualities
whose word was as good as his bond
and in his mercantile business, In
which he had been engaged for the
last seven years at Galilee, and In
his dealings with a variety ot people
whose characteristics were as varied
as their faces, he built up a trade
which we think cannot be surpassed
in a hamlet of similar bounds. His
dealings with his fellowmen was
above reproach, being open and stbovo
board, and he was one of the In
fluential men of the town, having at
different times held town officer), and
wherever known he was honored
and respected. He was an example
of industry, generosity, thrift, sta
bility, kindness and good cheer. The
hospitality of his home was shared
in by their large circle of friends and
acquaintances, and In his home bis
pastor and preachers of other folds
found a hearty welcome, and the Joy
of their family circle was overflow
ing to enrich other homes, and al
though he was a man of large bus!
ness interests which occupied the
larger part of his time, he was never
too busy to listen to or converse
about methods and means for giving
Christ and the church their share of
thought and strength, and the flnan
ces of the church were greatly aided
by his liberal giving. The going of
such a life from any family or com
munlty Is keenly felt, and also places
a responsibility on those who remain
to honor his name and memory.
He became a member of the Galilee
Methodist Episcopal church In 1908
as part of the fruit of that memor
able revival held under the pastorate
of Rev. L. T. Van Campen. Having
professed conversion and assuming
the obligations of the church, he en
tered upon the Christian life with
that same zest to do business for
eternity as characterized him In his
temporal affairs. He was elected and
remained a trustee of the church
He remained a consistent member un
til God called him to enrich Heaven
by the translation from his earthly
home.
He was the third son of William
and Levlnla Rutledge of Rutledgo
dale, and was born In the old home
stead on Aug. 28, 1860; he continued
the business of farming until his
purchase of the store of G. C. Abra
ham, at Galilee, In 1903. On Nov,
17, 1891, he was united In marriage
to Mrs. Bertha Adams of Cold Spring,
Pa., and to them were born three
children Vera M., Orvls W., and
Ian. His father died nine years ago
He Is survived by hU widow and
three children, and his aged mother,
who Is eighty-two years old, and who
thinks that she could have been bet
ter taken than her son John, but
who expects soon to be reunited with
her boy In Heaven; three brothers,
Alexander, of Scranton; Isaac 8., of
West Damascus; Wesley, of Rut
lodgedale, and one sister, Mrs. Rollln
Coons, of Sweden Valley. Pa,
He waa taken sick with perltonltl
Three physicians and a nurse were In
attendance, and 'although surrounded
by loved osm who did all they
! could to alleviate his suffering which
at times was intense, ho camo down
toward the end, patient and trust
ful; truly his house, was set In order
and was waiting for the summons
and he was calmly resigned to God's
will whom he. was soon to see face
tp face, and to receive tho reward of
the righteous.
The funeral services were held on
Friday, November 26, at 11 a. m. in
the Galilee Methodist Episcopal
church, by Rev. J. M. Coleman, who
preached from the text, "Be ye also
ready for In such an hour as ye think
not the Son of man cometh," to a
congregation that filled tho body of
the church, aisles, gallery and hall.
The floral tributes were many. The
body was then taken to the Bolkom
cemetery at Rlleyvllle for burial.
