Full of Years "and After Earnest Labors, Rev. J, bvYongue Answers The Master's Call. For several months, Kev. J. C. Ycngue, that -G^dlv man, faithful servant ana, beloved pastor of the x- ickens Methodist charge, has been a paralytic, an uncomplaining and cheerful sufferer. He suffered in all, three strokes. In May he had a 1 3 1 1 L ooiciu anav,iv anil Held IlcKi IlOt really fully recovered from it, when he was fatally stricken Sunday, while in the pulpit delivering the message of his Master to his flock, it being the first attempt at preaching since he 1 had been suffering. It was his desire t?>; reach and he did so, with th stewards and friends begging him to abandon the idea. Me said he felt that he must deliver his messege. As ho stood in the pulpit, he faltered, Capt. T. J. Mauldin went and stood by his side, and as he saw he could not go on, begged him to stop. Bro. Yongue, realizing his con unum, uiuiuvm^a u) pronounce a benediction 011 his friends and congregation. These were the la3t words ho ever spoke. He lingered until 4 o'clock, when his soul was wafted to the God who gave it. It was Bro. Yongue's wish that he die as he did, and be buried where he fell. His wishes came true. Oh! his was a ^ beautiful life and a triumphet \ f :'loath. How few of us, who * 1 V* . '. - t, read these lines, can hope for such a glorious ending of time and happy beginning of eternity as he experienced? At i> o'clock Monday evening,after appropriate services by lievs. P. F. Crawford of the Baptist church, A. II. Best of the Easley circuit and \V. M. Duncan the presiding Elder of the Greenville District, the solemn e.nrtmm nr? it? measured march to tin; city of the dead. The burial service being thereread by Revs. Duncan and Best. Seldom has it been our duty to record so sudden a death?a death fraught with such import. A dark gloom spread over the whole community when it was whispered trom one to another that "Rev. J. C. Yonguo was dead." There w;us a daily beauty about the life of this Godlv man which won every heart. He exemplified, by his pure and honorable life, the teachings of the Golden rule, and unfailingly evinced a practical piety that will long be remembered as the best of professions. In temperament he was mild, conciliatory and candid; and yet reIIIM.l'lr ! I V*l < I'lil' 'Ill lllnmnimiAii.in i "" | tirnness. I [chained confidence when ho seen km I 'cast to expect it. lit* believed that "Men and women, yonth and children, seek the friendship of the sunny-faced." That "all doors are open to those who smile." That "All social circles welcome cheeriness." That "A sunny face is the open sesame to hearts and homes." He was a firm believer in the fatherhood of God and the * '?-< 'Qtherhood of man: he believed chAt the man who scatters flowers in the pathway of his fellowmen, who lets into the dark places of life tho sunshine of human sympathy and human happiness, is following in the footsteps of his Master. His was a heart of gold. He was one of nature's noble men in its truest sense?brave generous, manly. His was th< soul of honor, and his friend and friendships were sacred t< him, But, the silver cord Is loosed the golden howl is broken, th> dust has returned to the eartl as it was; the spirit to the Go< who gave it. This man. whn as a devoted boy remembere< his Creator in the days of hi youth, ere the evil days came or the years drew* nigh when h< should say I have no pleasure ii them, has finished his cours< and reached the heavenly goa while vet an infant in the ran of life. In "Twentieth Century Sketches of the S. C. Methodis Conference, M. K. Church South.'' by Kev Watson B. Dun can, A. M., issued in 1901. \v? find tin1 foil wing sketch of this beloved Christion gentleman: "James Carson Yongne, sec ondson of Robert Aiken Yongut and Margaret Richardsor Yongue, was born in Columbia S. 0., October 15,1855, and waf dedicated to God in baotism b> Rev. Dr. Shand, rector of Trin ity (Episcopal) Church, in tha city. When the boy was foui and a half years old his fat he; died. The mother with hertw< boys, the subject of this pape and his brother, Robert A., en tered the family of her brother in-law, the late Rev. I)r. Fran cis A.

Thus tin boy had an early training ii the itinerancy, i 1 is first effort at Christian work were mad imriiia uicsc oovnoon days as ; missionary to the little negroe on the plantations, teaehinj them the Scriptures and cate chism and exercising his gift as a singer. This last fact doubtless, accounts tor tin* east with which our friend to thi day charms his congregation with song. After a few years the hoy left his native State am i- i- ~ \ I 1 i ? went iu .-Manama, and live* with his uncle, Dr. Thomas M Logan. He returned to Soutl Carolina in 18(>8. From thi time till 1884, Mr. Yongue re sided in \ arious places in th State and at one time lived ii Philadelphia, Pa., for a while During these years he had , varied experience in occupation ?going to school, farm work teaching, reading law, etc. The subject attended schoc for a while at the Porter Aca demy, Charleston, S.

At all times, under all circuni3 stances, he walked the well heaten paths of righteousness, and i when fully conscious that he t was nearsng the end of life's , journey, and that the hist of - earth would soon recede from his 3 sight, he was fully iinprressed ; with the idea that at the end of time ptnrnifv Koorsm .-n-wl J . . '<11.1 Illciu the bright faith that sustained him during those trying hours! of suffering would only grow brighter and brighter as he journeyed toward the infinite, and r the final gloom of death be dis pelled by the radiance of God's t love. Could all live the just and r upright life that James C. Yonv gue lived, and died in his trusting faith, death could no longer r be called "The King of Terrors" - for he inspired no terror there. - This man of God looked upon - the temporary separation as an t eternal reunion, where the i Hosts of Heaven sang llosan"> nahs to the King* f Besides a wife and one brotht er the deceased leaves five ehil3 dren, three sons and t wo daughi ters.
