He mov ed from Atlanta, to South Georgia trav eling as a Missionary for several years, He found no place too humble to preach the love of bis Master. In school house, log cabin, or convict camp, he was delight ed to tell the same old story. In his church work he had the unboun ded pleasure of adding mony stars to his celestial crown as an instrument in the hands of God in the salvation of many precious souls. The funeral services were conducted in the Baptist church at Enigma, by Rev. G. W. Durden, in the presence of his family and a great crowd of relatives and friends, who brought the most beautiful floral offerings as tokens of thei r affec tion and bereayement.

Third—That a copy of these resolutions be spread on a page of our minute book, a copy sent to his family, and a copy sent the Index for publication. Mrs. A. B. Hammond, Mrs. S. A. Cooksey, C. P.
