Mr. Absalom Perkins, died at his residence in this county, June 19th at 3 i o’clock, p. m. In the death of the subject of this notice, Taliaferro county loses one of her liest and most worthy citizens—one whose life is worthy of emulation. Ifone would follow tlie example of this good man and imitate his life he would lie sure to have with him through life the sole cheering presence of our savior and in the sail and solemn hour and article of death the death damp would lie blushed from his brow by the plastic hand of our Redeemer and when his soul is called upon to stand before the jiiiigiiNNii ihiwMi of God there would ke naught to fear for the welcome plaudit “well done thou good an I faitb sejvant enter thou into the joys of thyliord,’’would be wafted on the sun¬ ny breeze of the New Jerusalem and would be echoed, and re echoed by tlie spirit of just men made perfect around the eternal throne of God. In his life wa-Jt>ortrayeJ the Christian, an humble Christian, a God loving and a God serving Christian, a Christian possess¬ ing patience, humility and charity. He demonstrated most clearly that a man could live and keep hi ins »lf u ispot ed before the world. He was a Christian that was always satisfied with his sta¬ tion in life. He k mw what it was _to lied* prived of the comforts of life, ysa, t v n m my or the necessities of life, yet no oi e ever heard him murmur or complain. He knew w.iat it was to be surrounded with a sufficiency of this world’s goods to have his every tempo¬ ral want supplied. Yet no one ever saw a look of yan ity upon his face. Tlie rich and poor alike were bis com¬ panions aud friends, lu his life as a church member he showed to his breth red what a Deacon was and what a Deacon could and fshould be. During his life no one could say to him, Abso Irm Perk ins thou has wronged me, thou has defrauded me. ^' s community in which ****'' vel * * IHS sustained an irreparable loss and tlie church has sustained a D"** that will take years to obliterate.
