Last Sunday morning at 10
o’clock the Perry Methodist ch urch
was full of loving friends who by.
their presence desired to pay trib
ute of esteem to the memory of
Rev. Norman David Morehonse,
late pastor of that church.
The program was arranged in
perfect accord with the feelings
that prevailed, and a spirit of sol
emn love pervaded the entire ser
vice. -
The service was conducted by
Rev. J. W. Domingos, of Colum
bus, assited by Rev. J. 0. Brewton,
pastor of the Perry Baptist church.
In every soDg and every word of
the service, the Divine goodness
and mercy were interwoven with
loving tributes to the deceased
pastor whose memory was being
honored.
The service in every part, and as
a whole, was one of the most im
pressive ever _held here, and
though Dearly two hoars were oc
cupied in the church, there w
no signs of weariness.
The program was as follows:
Song: “Waiting and Watching
for me.”
Song: “Home of the Soul.”
Prayer by Rev. J. W. Domingos.
Song: “It is well with my Soul.”
Tribute from “Nnrnina Hook”
Domestic Missionary Society, read
by Hiss Frank Hook.
“We are assembled to commemo
rate the death of a dear friend and
brother. Bro. Morehonse was an
honorary and beloved member of
our Domestic Missionary Society.
We feel it a duty, as well as a sad,
sweet pleasure to say something of
his pare and devoted life among
us.
Two years ago he came to us a
stranger; two weeks ago he left us
a loved friend and brother.
In the silent watches of the night
of J an. 3d, 1892, God sent his an
gels to bear hie pure soul to the
beautiful “City of Light.” Early
Monday morning the sad tidings
passed from home to home, “Bro.
Morehouse is dead.”
Oh! how our hearts ached; how
dessolate we felt; how grieved for
his loved ones. But he is gone, he
has fought the good fight, he kept
the faith, ha won the victory, and
now he wears a crown that fadeth
not away. We do not feel that he
is dead, but like Lazarus, he sleep-
eth, and by and by, when the trump
shall sound, and Jesus shall say
“Come forth,” he, with all the re
deemed shall put on immortality;
we shell see him in all the glory of
ransomed soul, bought by the
blood of a crucified Lord.
It is not necessary to speak of
bis character, we all know what it
was; the best we can say is, he was
a Christian in the highest sense of
the word. We can truly say, he
litterally fulfilled the law; he walk
ed in the foot prints of Jesus; for
more than 30 years he followed the
lowly Christ; he emulated His
character in every walk of life; he
was modest and refiued in spirit; he
never sought high places, but was
content in the humble pnths of life;
he was gentle and guileless as a
child, and yet for the sake of right
he was as brave and true as God
would have him be. Bro. More,
house had but one aim in life, that
was to preach Christ crucified.
When God called him to the min
istry he put the things of this
world behind him, took np the
cross of his dear Master, and bore
it uncomplaiugly to the end of his
life; and, can we doubt on the
night when his sainted soul passed
aw_ay, he heard the welcome plaud
it, ‘Well done good and faithful
servant, enter thon into the joy of
thy Lord.’
Bro. Morehonse joined oar soci
ety soon after he came here, and
was ever a true and faithful mem
ber, beloved by us all. In Septem
ber he met with ns and gave ns
words of encouragement we will
not forget. He entered earnestly
into all the work of the church; any
and all things that tended to the
good of man, and the glory of God
oppealed to his heart. He delight
ed in the law of the Lord. Al
though his life was so quiet, we
feel such a true, good man has
done much good, and while we can
not understand a providence that
took him in the prime and strength
of his life, we feel God is good, He
does all things well. We will nev
er forget the many times he stood
in yonder sacred desk pleading
with sinners to turn to Christ,
warning them of the wrath to
come, and tfaeu presenting the sto
ry of Jesus and the cross in sweet-
pathos, as a balm for every wound.
But he is gone, we shall not see
him again; we have heard the last
massage, the last prayer; we have
looked for the last time on his face
stamped in the mould of death.
The hands that so often pointed to
the cross are folded-over his still
heart, that warm, true heart that
beat so tenderly for all of God’s
creatures. While we mourn, his
death, we doubt not he is happy in
that Home not made with hands,
in. the City of God.
May,our Heavenly Father help
ns all to live as lie lived, as he
prayed us to live; in tue fear and
admonition"of that Christ he loved
and served so "faithfully to the end

luring the re-
, of his life,
the memory of our beloved pastor.
While the church and the Sunday
school and the societies are mourn
ing hi3 loss, we beg leave to ex
press our feelings in a few brief
words.
We, as the Young People’s Mis
sionary Society, feel the lo33 of onr
Pastor very much. His name" was
on our roli, and he was a good
friend to our society. Whenever
it was possible he met with us and
aided ns all he could. He was a
great friend to missions . anyway,
and loved to discourse ,on the ne
cessity of spreading onr Lord’s
Gospel. He' always made very
earnest efforts to interest others in
the cause of missions, and never
let an opportunity pass to aid in
the grand work of evangelizing the
world. Now what can I say about
dear Brother Morehonse? There
is nothing that I can say that will
add to his career. His pure and
saintly life was testimony enough^
and yet I would fain recall some of
his many.virtues.
Bro. Morehouse had led a long
and nsefu! consistent Christian
life. He was converted and joined
the church at the age of 19, and at
the very-meeting where God spoke
peace to his soul, he began to work
for Christ. His pardon and free
dom from sin was of such inesti
mable value to him that each day
found him exhorting, praying and
laboring in every way to bring
souls to Christ. Three months from
that lime found him preaching,
and from theu until his death be
had bat one aim, one purpose, to
warn sinners of their danger and
win souls for Christ. He possessed
the ornament of a meek and quiet
spirit, always humble and unas
suming, be did not seek for praise
or applause of the .world. He was
always thankful when his sermons
did good, yet he would shun the
compliments his Eriends would lav
ish upon him, wishing to give God
the glory, and preferring to live
quiet and unknown, loved and
prized by God alone.” He was al
ways deeply in earnest, and at
times would seem completely over
come with the importance of the
message he was delivering. He
was very fond of repeating Scrip
ture, and seemed almost to know
the Bible by heart; he realized that
there was power in the word of
God, and loved to give it to his
hearers iu its pure style. His quo
tations were apt and fitting, and at
times seemed like “apples of gold
in pictures of silver.” He was spe
cially fond, and took great delight
in reading and discoursing on the
spiritual songs of the “Sweet Sing
er of Israel.” His last Sabbath
morning sermon was preached on
the text, “Trust iu the Lord aDd
do good, so shalt thou dwell in the
land, and verily shalt thou be fed.”
—37th Psalm, 3rd verse. The dis
course was fall of wise counsel and
solid spiritual comfort. How well
for us the future was hidden from
our view, and we did not know
we were hearing him for the last
time; hadwe known that those ear
nest words were his last, as we lis
tened our hearts would have been
wrung with sadness3. His stay
with us in Perry was very pleas
ant and profitable; he did us good.
Th8 influence he exerted over the
hearts of some will live after him,
and be more durable than monu
ments of brass or marble that
might be erected to his memory.
In some respects he had few
equals, and wa mourn his loss; and
our hearts are sad that we must
give up his dear family, but our
faith in God assures us that “He
doeth all things well,” and we know
that our loss is his' eternal gain.
May God bless and comfort the
loved one3, use them for His glory,
and htlp them to go on their way
rejoicing, still gathering in "the
sheaves. Farewell, dear brother
and pastor; we cherish thy memo
ry; may each one of us, if called
suddenly like thee, like thee be
found with lamp trimmed and
burning.”
Song: “We shall sleep, bat not
Forever.”

was eloquently illustrated,and lov
ingly made to symbolize the life of
Rev. W. J. Dowell, late of the
Florida conference. He reached
Perry Tuesday with, his wife and
infant sou, and they are for the
present boarding at the Perry
Hotel. '"
Daring the past two years he
served the Riverside charch, Jack
sonville, and is highly commended
by the Bishop of the Florida con
ference, . the people -of bis late
charge, the newspapers of Jack
sonville, and Georgia ministers
who know him. He is about 30
years old, and a native of Georgia.
During the recent session of the
Florida conference, the Bishop -was
written to by onr Presiding Elder,
Dr. Clark, asking that a preacher
be sent here, if possible. The
transfer of Mr. Dowell is the re
sult of that request.
Considering the high endorse
ment with which our new pastor-
comes, we are assured that the
people of this circuit will be ably
and satisfactorily served. He will
preach bis first sermon here next

A SILVER WEDDING*.
Last Friday, January lpfcb, was
a very pleasant day to Mr. and
Mrs. J. W. Clark, and the relatives
and friends who attended thei* -
silver wedding. The celebration
of the 25th anniversary of their
marriage, was at the residence of
of Mr. T. M. Killen, in Perry,
where they are boarding. The re
ception began at about 2 p. m. and
continued until about 8 o’clock.
Relatives and friends called, offer
ed their eongatulations, and with
the happy couple partook of the
delightful refreshments that were
prepared for the occasion and
temptingly served.
Mr. and Mrs. Clark were mar
ried in Perry ou January 15th
1867, and their united life has been
such as to win and retain the
friendship ana high esteem of all
who know them.
Their many friends wish for
them a renewed lease of life, ex
