church and brings sorrow to all
our people.
M'. Steadham was a good, ear
nest,, consecrated Christian gne
tleman. He was one of the pil
lars of County Line Baptist
church, a man whose sterling
worth, sincerity of purpose and
unselfish service made him a
true leader. He loved the house
of God and was seldom ab
sence from its services as long
as his health permitted him.
For several years he was Sab
bath School superintendent. He
was a deacon of the church, as
officer in the church, he was
true to all the causes of the
Kingdom, supporting them most
liberally, wise in council, spirit
ual in his out look upon life.
He was helpful in his instruc
tions and loyal in his support
of the pastor, and deeply inter
ested in the progress of the
church.
When called upon he was rea
dy and willing to do the best
he could without excuse or ap
ology. Truly he could say, ’’l
have finished my course, I have
kept the faith.”
The church has lost a loyal
member, the community as use
ful and upright citizen. We
thank God for his life and vic
torious death.
To his love ones and many
friends we would say, “He is
not dead, but sleeping.” May the
grace and strength of his God
be your stay and support afc-i
safety write us all again, some
sweet day, around the great
white throne.
Thus the County Line Church
in less than three years has
sent on ahead two of its very
best men. May the- Lord of the
vineyard raise up others to take
up the work and “carry on.”
Funeral services were held on
Sabbath afternoon at 3 o'clock
at County Line Church con
ducted by the Rev. S. S. Willi
ams, of Porterdale. Interment
in church cemetery.
Pallbearers were his son’s and
son-in-law, J. Hugh, Carl, Ar
thur, Roy and Ray Steadham
and Robert L. Cook. He is also
survived by. his wife, three
daughters, Mrs. Bryant Yancy,
Mrs. Robert L. Cook, and Mrs.
Roy Satterfield and several
grand-children.
The floral offering was num
erous showing the esteem in
which he was held.
