Soldier of Christ, well done! t'raise be thy new employ; nd while eternal acres run. Rest in thy Saviour's joy." A lt ROBERTS. Captain William son Roberts was born, Oct. 4th, 1835. anu passeu into me great ueyouna on Dec.

10th, 1S8S. ihe announcement "that Cantain Jack Roberts was no more" threw a dark shadow over our town, and sent sucn a shock tnat people could only stop and wander is it possible uniy a tew days before, his wife had received a letter stating that he would pass Beaufort on his way to Rogue inlet to load and reouested her to inin din in the trip and when loaded he would return and spend Christmas with ler and the children. In order that she would know he was ready, his letter stated that he would place a flag in the rigging. News came that the good shin Dyer was in sight; immediately the devoted wife, with two of the children, started iii a small boat to meet the ves sel. The rlaij was half -mast, but re membering that a Hag was to be set for her, she did not once think it was trying to tell of the dark shadow thrown across Uer life.

Along side the vessel, the children were lilted to the deck and ran to the cabin looking for papa, while his bereaved widow, wondering at the absence of her husband and fearing he might be sick asked "where is the Captain Oh, the deep darkness ot those mo ments as she hears the answer that her liisband is sleeping beneath the waves! There, looking upon the rolling waters, to hear that ner dearest earthly love uid been beneath the billows for 24 lours and instead of the happy greeting so recently expected, she meets the greatest sorrow ot her hie. Captain Roberts was as brave and true as any who ever faced the storm on the ocean, yet as kind and gentle as a wro- man. Six weeks beiore his death we stood together over his dying father, and in a conversation had at that time he stated that he daily offered prayer for divine guidance anil sought instruction from God's word. When driven by the storm at one time, he looked death in the face and afterwards stated to his wife that he committed his fami ly to the Lord and put himself in God's hands reeling all was well. His crew bear evidence to his faith fulness in reading the scriptures and regular seasons ot prayer, and rrom his statements to the writer wre think that he had given himself to the Lord and it he had lived 1 believe he would have joined the church this year.

Captain Roberts was a member or ranklin Lodge Xo. 100 A. F. and A. M.

and was a (jood mason, true to his obligations, worthy and well qualified. His body found, taken charge of by the fraternity, prepared for and taken to its last resting placed there to wait until the Lion of the tribe of Juda shall call the the dead to life. A widow, four children, sister, brothers, other relatives and a large circle of friends are sorely bereaved. God's wray is right. He doeth all things well.

May His grace abound unto those sorrowing ones and bring all to be an unbroken circle. F. A. Bishop. CHAD WICK.

On the 19th of Jan. 1889, the soul of sister Nannie S. Chad-wick laid aside its earthly burden of sorrow and went from her home in Fairfield, N. to dwell with the Master in our celestial Home where burdens and sorrows are no more. Sister Chad wick (nee Spencer) was born October 5th, 1S02, and was therefore in her 27th year.

She professed faith in God and joined our church in her 14th year, and has since then lived a consistent member of the same. About a year ago she contracted a severe cold which finally developed into consumption, speedily terminating her career on earth; not, however, without severe, suffering, which she bore with most patient resignation. Her last hours were truly beautiful, for she wTas ready for the change. On the night before her death she became very happy in the love of her Saviorseemed to be entering Heaven's border land and in the blessed hope, she asked her friends around her to tell her absent sister and brother that she was going to glory Awhile bef jre the end came the writer asked her if she felt that all was well, and she answered witii much composure, 'Just waiting," and soon afterward passed away as if sinking to a restful sleep. She was truly a good woman, and will be sadly missed, for she was the light of a happy home.

She leaves a husband and three sweet little children God bless the dear little children and many relatives and friends to mourn their loss. But they should obey her injunction, not to yveep for her, but strive to meet her beside our Father's throne. J. M. Dowtstum.

Kev. J. J. Congletoii. The announcement in your paper of Jan.

23rd, of the death of this excellent local preacher of Bath circuit, was news of peculiar sadness to me. Bath circuit was my first appointment, and Bro. Congleton wTas among the first of my acquaintances on the circuit. I remember with pleasure the first time I went to Asbury Church (he held his membership at this place) how timid and embarrassed I was, just a boy, among strangers, far from home, and how 1 wras met by Bro. Congleton.

His pleasant face, his excellent appearance, and his superior kindness soon made a deep impression on me, and I felt then that I had found a man of true worth, and a firiend indeed to the young preacher, and more than all a man devoted to the church. I stayed on the circuit two years, and was with Bro. Congleton much of that time. I found him always ready to wrork for the Lord and the good of souls. He never refused, if it lay in his power, to do any work however humble.

He was patient, humble and unassuming; in honor he preferred others. He labored, not to honor himself, but to honor the church, to glorify God, and to save precious souls. During my stay on that circuit I never heard him utter a murmuring word; never heard him complain in the least of the church or minister or of any work that he was called upon to do. I held some very good meetings on that circuit and recived a large number into the church. I attribute much of my success in those meetings to his untiring efforts.

Bro. Congleton was a good preacher, and I don't think I ever heard a man who could make a more powerful prayer. I remember very distinctly the last time I preached At his church (Asbury) what a powerful prayer he offer Missionary society. Glint I DISTRICT SECRET AllIES. i district, Mrs.

Wliile raised under and surrounded by a positive Christian influence, vet he never united with any 'Church He studied and believed the doctrines of the Bible as taught by the Jlethodist Church and had a very exalted opinion of the vows and obligations resting upon church members. His criticisms ot inconsistent members were plain and severe. He said to me that to be a Christian was the highest honor and greatest privilege granted to pian, but to profess Christ and dishon or tue name was sucu an enuiunuis friine that he was afraid to join the fehurch, even if he felt worthy. In his last sickness he talked treeiy bt his confidence in God and how good the Lord had been to him. Just after praying with him, he looked up and said, "God knows all about me," and the humble trust shown in his look told of depth of meaning in the words.

It was touching to see the aged man, nearly 84 years, fold his hands and say, Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray hee Lord my soul to keep," and then that faraway look, and, as if his eves were resting upon something beyond the confines of time and slowly jfepeat. I "When I can read my title clear, i To mansions in the skies. I'll bid farewell to every tear, And wipe my weeping eyes." He had been coasting: along the shore of eternitv for vears: now the light is Seen the inlet is before him; the channel is clearly marked; with the Pilot at the wheel, he heads his vessel towards the harbor breakers are in sight, but he Pilot stands at the wheel; the ocean time is behind him he naa a long vnvacrfi a tremor as the reef is passed go the anchor" is heard and Kol onion Roberts enters to rest in the port of a blessed eternity. 4 May God comfort the bereaved hearts, find brh them all to Himself.

Januray 26th, aged nearly SO years. She leaves a sister. 3 sons and a large numoer ot grand-children and friends. They weep not as those who have no hope. She fwas a victim of cancer, and was aware k)f the inevitable.

i She had been a professor of religion arid member of the church more than half a century, during which time she adorned her 'profession. Her amiable Christian character was well and beau tifully developed, the influence of her kind words and good acts will remain as a legacy to bless and enrich society, In the unsuitable home with the well or dered fainilv of her son Martin L. Cude, she had all the medical attention and lean; that skill and loving hands could give. She gave directions about her burial and was ready to depart and be with Christ. Embracing her son she said, how sweet it is to lean on Jesus for renose and peacefully passed away Peace to her ashes and God bless her memory.

Wasuburn. Consumption Curable. It cannot be too often impressed on every one that the much dreaded consumption (which is only lung scrofula), is curable, if attended to at once, and that the primary symptoms, so often mistaken as signs of diseased lungs, are only symptoms of an unhealthy liver. To this organ the system is indebted for pure blood, and to pure blood the lungs are indebted no less than to pure air for healthy action. If the former is polluted, we have the hacking cough, the hectic flush, night-sweats, and a whole train of symptoms resembling consumption.

Rouse the liver to healthy action by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, take healthy exercise, live in the open air, and all symptoms of consumption will disappear. For weak lungs, spitting of blood, shortness of breath, chronic nasal catarrh, bronchitis, asthma, severe coughs, and kindred affections, it is a most wonderful remedy. The "Discovery" is guaranteed to cure in all cases of diseases for which it is recommended, or money paid for it will be promptly refunded. Wanted.
