good fight, kept the faith and
is wearing the crown of glory.
Below are some lines composed
by a lady friend, expressive of the
feelings of all the brotherhood who
know him.
In yonder realms of heavenly light
Another one doth rest
With God who called him from our
sight
To be forever blest.
The words he spoke—sweet to recall—
Alas! now never more
Upon our listening ears shall fall —
He too, has gone before.
His work is done —he’s now at rest
In that sweet world above, <
Where the redeemed in Christ are blest
Where all is God and love.
How often did he groan and sigh,
Waiting that blissful shore?
That fair celestial home on high,
Where death is feared no more
His gracious Lord has heard his cries,
And given him a crown
Os life eternal in the skies,
Where sin is never known.
We cannot wish him here-again,
In this vile world to roam.
Since it is God who loosed his pain
And gave him that sweet home.
Oh glorious thought! Oh blessed Lord !
Os such a home on high I
Where all the scattered saints abroad,
Shall gather bye and bye.
Then ye his loved ones, weep no more,
For God calls but his own;
And praise, instead this stroke deplore,
And strive for a like crown.

er, if you can bear with me in a
few more words I desire to tell you
a dream I had not long since. I
had b- en to the Pilgrims Rest As
sociation, had a glorious feast of
fat things. But alter we had all
parted, I felt sad, and got to think
ing about old church-troubles
gone, and of my ill health and sin
ful state, till I was in deepdistress;
being at brother Jones,’ ho asked
me if I did not wish to he down
and net awhile? I replied that I
did. S) I did, and soon fell asleep,
and dreamed that my sorrows were
killing me; I fell upon my knees
in prayer to the L«>rd; and I
th ought my dear twin brother put
his arms around my neck and tried
to comfort me, but I told him I
must go to the Lord—that I had
no confidence in the flesh: So I
kept on praying and asking the
Lord to have mercy upon me and
His precious people. And I be
'came so fervent, and wept so, that.
I awoke weeping aloud. /Then my
poor soul leaped for joy, and I felt
a love for my dear brother and
sister Jones and their litte chil
dren, that I could scarcely keep
from manifesting in some unusual
way; and I loved all of God’s
creatures with a love so comfort
ing to me. Oh how' I wanted to
praise God for this happy maifes
tation and deliverance! I felt like
I did when I first received a hope
of eternal life and rest. I went on
to the Buttahatchee Association
andwas happy for about a week. I
must close. Remember me in
your prayers.

nearly one year and desire to make a short re
port for which intrusion I hope you will pardon
me. My daughter has taken thirty-eight bottles
and thinks her cancer is cured. Mrs. Stiverson
who resides near my place had a running sore
on her breast for two years, which four good doc
tors failed to cure. It may have been cancer.
Her family gave her up to die. Eight bottles of
Graybeard cured her completely.
Mrs. Sargent was very feeble with cancer and
Graybeard cured her in six months.
Mr. Koutner has had a cancer on his face 28
years. Graybeard is healing it up and making
him healthy.
Mr. Weiland has been to Hot Springs Ark. and
other places for treatment of rheumatism and |
was compelled to walk with crutches. Eighteen L
bottles of the medicine made by these young men
made him throw away the crutehe§.
Mrs. Neff who lives in Adelpliia across our
county line has been confined to her bed nine
weeks with cancer. I sold her two bottles of this
medicine and after taking two bottles she was
able to go to the table for her meals and could
ride out in her buggy.
She had five physicians to hold a consultation
in her case and they said they could do nothing
to relieve her and that she must die in a month
or six weeks.
This gives the medicine quite a name here.
