Tribute of Respect.
Again and again has death come among us and
borne off some loved and cherished friend ; some
form around which our affections clustere 1 with
all the ardor of youth and attachment of age.
The hearts, torn and still bleeding from the
w unds of sundered affections and shattered as
sociations, once more send up the wail of woe,
breathe a prayer for pity, and throb an aching
miserere in the memory of another and one of the
most vigorous of our number.
Death—stern as Nemesis, inexorable as the
fates—has sown the pestilence over the land and
reaped his tribute of lives after the scythe of Time.
Youths and maidens had been taken, and we
hoped that the harvest was past; old age, ripe and
ready for the reaper, was gathered home, and we
thought the garner filled and the tribute paid ;
hut the Lord called another, and Bascom
Deavours was stricken down and led across the
Valley of the Shadow of Death. lie was called
when the flitting gleams of youthful indecision
were just developing into the steady glow of man
hood’s determination ; when the bud of life had
but unclosed the silken edges of its lovely petals ;
when all was joy and hope and peace. His father
was before him, his brothers and sisters by his
side; yet he tarried not with these, but, at the
bidding, laid down the armor of life, and, laying
it down, took up the hope and assurance of a
future radiant with joy and love ineffable. No
doubt it was with reluctance that he saw the
bright scenes and hopes of life fade from his sight,
“For who, to dumb forgetfulness a prey,
This pleasing, anxious being e’er resigned,
Left the warm breezings of the cheerful day,
Nor cast one long, lingering look behind?”
No doubt his heart aclied when he thought of
the separation from father and brothers; but the
Comforter came, and he turned his thoughts
heavenward, and found a Savio ir and a mother
waiting his coming.
Rarely have we seen one whose life was as ex
emplary and blameless as that of him we mourn ;
and we feel that, when lying on his death-bed he
professed repentance and an abiding hope of sal
vation, few, very few tears were required to blot
the record of his sins from the book of remem
brance.
It is sad to sec the death of the old, when the
frosts of age have whitened the locks; when the
tottering step and trembling voice proclaim the
approach of dissolution. It is sadder still to sec
strong and vigorous manhood cut down and its
hopes and joys scattered over the chaos of for
getfulness.
The heart rebels when its idol is snatched from
it, and those who shared with him the joys of
home and the hopes of happiness may refuse the
cup of comfort and seek solace in the remem
brance of their sorrow. But the Great Omniscient
does ail things well, and will sootli the wounded
hearts and bring comfort to the maircd and shat
tered lives.
Resolved , That in the death of Bascom Dea
vours, society has lost a promising member, the
Sunday School a highly prized associate, and the
family an affectionate brother and son.
Resolved. That the sympathies of the Sabbath
School be tendered to the bereaved family.
Resolved , Teat the Forest News be request
ed to publish this tribute, and that a cop} r be sent
to the family of the deceased.
