OBITUARY.
Mr. Wesley Kea was bom
Emanuel county;-,Ga., Jan. 2nd.,
1819, was happily married to Miss
Ann S. Kitchen in Dec. 1844, and de
parted this life June 21st., 1878 in
the 59th year of his age.
Ho gave his heart to the Lord, and
joined the Methodist Church when
quite a youth, and lived a consistent
life therein until the Master said, “It
is enough, come up higher.” Scon
after ho united witli the church, he
was bereaved of his father (Warren
Kea, a local Methodist preacher);
whereupon ho continued to keep up
the family altar, encouraging and
praying with Ins widowed mother
and her fatherless children. Not a
great while after his marriage he was
made a class-leader in the church,
filling that office acceptably as long
as licnadhealth and strength to do so.
He had been bereaved of the wife of
his youth, two sons who were prom
ising members of tho church, and
six little children who passed over in
infancy. He leaves three children,
all members of the church, and one
of thorn (Rev. B. 8. Kea) a member
of tho. South Georgia Conference.
A man of prayer ana Biblo reading,
the subject of religion was his great
est delight: lienee lie was ever pleased
W1CTT tTro'eSjjfhpany oT good people—
ministers of the gospel always find
ing a welcome at his honse. As a
Imiband he tfafljkind, as a father lie
was indulgent, but firm and positive.
As a neighbor he observed tho golden
rale,—always doing unto others as he
would have them do unto him.
With such a record os this, his
end could bo nothing but victory and
p>cacp; and snch it wus. For his tes
timony for the faith once delivered
to the saints was clear and strong.
In his last illness he said he was ready,
and wanted to go,
Tlms'lias passed away from earth
to his reward above one of our best
men. “Blessed are the dead who
from henceforth.
a saitji the Spirit, they rest from
their labors, and their works do fol
low them.”
