BEDFORD WEEKLY MAIL BEDFORD, INDIANA FRIDAY, MAY 9, 1902 Laid To Rest. The remains of Dr. C. B. H. Martin were interred in Bellevue Wednesday afternoon. Dr. Payton Hodge (Hoge), of Louisville, conducted the services, which were held in the Second Presbyterian church, of which the deceased was for many years the much beloved pastor. The arrangements were dictated by Dr. Martin before his death, and in accord with his expressed wish, the services were very simple, consisting of a prayer by Dr. Ramsey, reading of three verses of his favorite chapter of Revelations by Dr. Hoge, singing of two hymns and the closing prayer by Dr. Worrall. At the grave a hymn and prayer by Dr. Marquess closed the services. There was no address. The pall bearers were officers of the church during Dr. Martin's pastorate. His old congregation and many friends attended the services of this pure Christian gentleman and beloved disciple of the Lord. Accompanying the body from Louisville , besides the widow and children, Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Thornton and Mr. Ernest Martin, were Dr. Peyton Hoge, of the Warren Memorial church, Louisville; Dr. Marquess, President of the Theological Seminary, Louisville; Mr. Henry C. Thornton, Prof. Chas. Thomas and Mr. George Thornton, of Indianapolis; Mr. Harry Warren, of Louisville and Dr. Wm. Martin, brother of the deceased. Memorials services in his honor were held Wednesday in Louisville at the Presbyterian Seminary. The members of the family and the students were present in large numbers to do honor to the memory of the dead professor of the church history. Dr. C. K. Crawford presided. Dr. Crawford made a short address in which he eulogized the life and work of Dr. Martin. He said the world would be much better if men emulated the life of the educator. Prayer was offered by Dr. J. Kinsey Smith. Dr. T. M. Hawes made the principal address. Dr. Hawes paid a glowing tribute to the Rev. Mr. Martin. He praised him as man, minister and educator. R. W. Bonner and A. V. Reatice spoke for the faculty. He dwelt upon the Rev. M. Martin's worth as an instructor in all branches relating to the Presbyterian church. To those who knew him best, and therefore loved him most the simple announcement of the death of this venerated and faithful servant of God has brought the deepest grief and mourning most sincere. Endowed with great natural ability and the highest mental attainments, in him was commingled the tenderest sympathy and love approaching that which "passeth understanding," and many a stricken heart has found healing and consolation in the language spoken by the lips, now sealed and dumb, over the cold forms of some loved one about to be consigned to the last resting place. Dr. Martin's death was due to cancer and came after a long and painful illness. For the last few days it has been known that the end was near, and nearly all his close relatives were at his bedside. In addition to his wife he is survived by one son Mr. Ernest Martin, who, until recently, was a Presbyterian minister. His brother, Dr. W. A. P. Martin, is one of the most prominent missionaries in the service of the Presbyterian church, and was in Pekin during the famous siege, but had returned, and was at the bedside of his dying brother. Dr. Martin filled a successful pastorate at Bedford, Ind., and then came to Danville, and was pastor of the Second Presbyterian church of his city for a number of years. Later he became a professor in the Danville Theological Seminary, and as a teacher was as successful as he had been as a preacher. At the time of the consolidation of the two seminaries he removed to Louisville. His death will be mourned as a loss to the entire Presbyterian church of Kentucky. Though his most intimate friends here had long been acquainted with the condition of his health, the sad news of the death of this able and beloved minister came as a severe shock to the entire community, which, through his unassuming and modest demeanor and faithful ministrations had learned to honor and revere him, and the estimation in which he was held was deeply manifest at the brief services held this afternoon at the Second Presbyterian church, and by the large concourse of friends that followed his remains to beautiful Bellevue, which he had requested should be his last resting place. Dr. Martin was born August 5th, 1829, and was therefore in the seventy-third year of his age. "Out of the shadows that shroud the soul, Out of the seas when the sad waves roll, Part from the whirl of each mundane pole, 'He moved into the light' Out of the region of cloud and rain, Out of the cares that oppress the brain, Out of this body of sin and pain, 'He moves into the light.' Out of the struggles of church and state, Out of the empire of pride and hate, Up throng the beautiful sapphire gates, 'He moved into the light.' Beyond the noise of creation's jars, Higher than all the worlds and stars, Higher than limits of reason's bars, 'He moved into the light.'" Tri-Weekly Kentucky Advocate, Danville.
