Of Mr. J. H. Richardson—A Truly
Good Christian Man.
One*' again in the providence of
God has our Sunday-school and
church been bereaved by what
appears to us the untimely re
moval of a member in the prime
and vigor of manhood, bearing a
weight of responsibility and use
fulness which cannot well be
transferred to other shoulders
When we come to speak of the
lives and deeds of our departed
friend-, language seems too weak
to appropriately express the senti
ments that crowd upon our bur
dened hearts.
The ciroumstances surrounding
this occasion combines to make it
one of peculiar sadness, in that it
affects not only the entire com
munity, but far more deeply and
lastingly affects the present well
being and the future destiny of
the precious little souls whom
God has seen fit to deprive of a
father’s love and protection.
On the evening of Aprill 22nd,
1904, just after the twilight had
woven its mystic shadows around
the old homestead, the hour when
all nature seeks repose, He who
h"lds life in His palm, whispered
to the soul of John H. Richardson
“Come.” Eternal sleep kissed
down the eyelids, hiding forever
from those who loved him best the
tender blue, the light of which
was ever a guide for his children,
and which will open no more un
til he awakes in the likeness of
Him he loved and served.
Born May 14th, 1854, he fell
asleep before his life’s shadows
pointed far westward, but if
reckoned by noble deeds he lived
longer than the many who live out
their three-score years and ten.
He was an unassuming man and
an unpretentious Christian. He
made no boast of his religion, but
he never failed ro respond to the
needs of his church and Sunday-
school The removal of one
whose ’life was so honest and true
is an irreparable loss to kindred,
friends, church and country. He
stood immovable in the right of
every moral question, more con.
cerned to be right than popular.
He took no positions and advo
cated no cause not approved by
his conscience and Bible. His
fidelity to duty was lecognized in
his home and community. To
say that he will be missed is but
to express a truism, which is
recognized by all.
To unduly exalt his virtues or
to condone his faults is not the
purpose of this memorial, but to
express in a feeble manner our
appreciation of the life he lived
among us, and to recommend to
the tender care and loving sym
pathy of those whom God has
seen fit to leave awhile longer in
the walks of life, the precious wife
and little ones whom it would
have been his greatest pleasure
and highest effort to guide and
direct through their life upward
to a glorious and perfect entrance
into the life beyond.
Therefore, be it Resolved, That
we, the Pleasant Grove Sunday-
school, do hereby tender to the
bereaved family our heartfelt
sympathy in their affliction.
Resolved further, That we
strive to emulate the Christian life
and deeds of our departed brother,
DEATH OF DR. BITTING
A Former Daltonian Dies Out In the
West.
Died—at his home in this place
on Saturday evening last, Dr.
Nicholas Bitting. He was sur
rounded by his family and a
number of friends, and the end
was peaceful. Dr. Bitting was well
and favorably known throughout
the Cherokee Nation. He had
lived among the Cherokees almost
all his life. Had married a Cher
okee and reared a large family.
He was a graduate in medicine
and a minister of the gospel. He
belonged to the Methodist church,
and was looked upon as one of
the greatest pulpit orators the
church ever had in this country.
He was loved and honored by the
country people, in particular, as
it was among them he labored
most. He was a very active man
all his life, and never refused to
go to visit the sick and needy, it
mattered not how daik or rainy
the night nor how long the dis
tance, pay or no pay. It will be
a long time before the people will
fine another man like Dr. Bitting.
The bereaved wife and family
have our heartfelt sympathy.—
Tahltquah (I. T.) Advocate.
