■ aw ay our dearly beloved broth
an d deacon. Jas. D Winburn.
Boin March 2, 1831, died at

95 - ’ 389^
He wa 4 - a devoted Christian .
, « ▼ >5-J , aed the Baptist church
at (j 0i; • u J , August 29ih # 1865.
After serving his master zeal¬
ously for eight years l-e was
then ordained a deacon March
22, J 873.
II is lire seemed (o be fully con¬
secrated to the service of the
Lord as ho was over anxious to
speak or work for Ids master.
Always prompt at his church
service, willing and ready to do
anything for the I eneflt of his
church or the glory of God. His
heart seemed to yearn for those
who knew not the Savior in pat
don of their sins, and many have
been the prayers he offeted for
them.
Ills pew is vacant, ami can
never be filled, but while we
mourn our loss and feel the
need of his presence, jet w e
must say blessed lie (he name
1 of the ^o'd 11 for he doelli all
things well As we we think
of Ids life before us these words
fall sweetly on our ear.
“Safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on liisgemle breast.
There by his love ore shaded
Sweetly his fcoul shall rest,”
Asa husband and brother lie
was one to lie admired : afivc
tionate, faitliful and kind.
Bringing sunshine into his home
j seemed to he his delight. He
1 was a father to be appreciated
gentle in his teachings and lov¬
ing to his children.

Resolve first. That in his
death the church has lost a

Second, That while we

heads in solemn reverence and
say. •Father, thy will he done.
Third, That a copy of these
resolutions be published in the
