Mr. Prosser was 68 years old. He gave his heart and life to Jesus sev eral years ago, and since that time has endeavored to live a consistent Christian life, being very attentive to his church and the cause of his Lord. When his body became so feeble that ho could not attend his church services, it grieved him very much. But he was-exceedingly patient of his suffering, and did not mur nor complain. Mr. Prosser was a successful busi ness man, because of his diligence in business. But, he Was also ferv ent in apiri:, serving the Lord. His going leaves a sad vacancy in the am y ^ j be bome> j n tbe church, in the com munity. his Master needed him to fill a higher position, so He pro moted him.

Sleep on dear husband, father, grandfather, and brother. For we know that while your body slumbers there, your spirit is serving our Lord.
