Here he was permitted to spend the 83 years allotted to him. The call to his heavenly home came to him on the 14th day of November, 1894. In his young manhood's days he came to the consciousness of Christ as his Saviour, and to his service he gave himself in fellowship with the First Hillsburg church, of which the late Rev. H. Saunders was the pastor. The wife of his early choosing, with whom in happy accord he had lived more than 60 years passed on to the "better land" just three months before him. These aged servants of the Lord were patterns of industry, economy and piety; though subject to all the infirmities of the flesh and spirit in all that pertained to the welfare of the church of Christ they were joyous. They with their early associates -- the most of whom have passed on before them -- did much to prepare the church of their choice for its present prospe! rty. The memory of the justified is blessed. From the Baptist paper: Messenger and Visitor, Dec. 5th 1894 issue
