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.

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.” C.
