Beautiful In DenthTrluuiptiluK In HI* Suvlour'n Love, lie t'rouei the River. On tbe 12tb of March. 1S86, one home In Abievllle whh gladdened by the advent Of a litle Mtranger. His name was James Patterson ?empleton. Like a stray sun-beam from ome bright world he entered that circle to nake Its home-life all the sweeter by bis preeuce, and by growlog up wltb his growth, to mdear himself to all its'members and be to hem a constaot inspiration. For more than Llteen years his mission was charmingly fulllled. Success rested like a crown on bis unonsclouB effort. Tbe affections of all?motbr, father, sisters, brothers?became wreathed iround him. He was looked upon by them s the light In their home-window. When be time came for blm to leave tbem?his de>arture being as mysterious as bis comingbe strength, ardor and glow of these afleclons were made strikingly apparent. Only >y the help given from above were tbey deacbed one by one, and t hut little sun beam et iree to return to the God who gave It. Happy waB it tor him that his earth-lot was rdered where it was, in tbe bosom of a ibrlstian borne. Safeguarded by the best of nfluences from the first to tbe last, his life ;rtJW up 11KC a DWDDl CAUMU iU a wunyt ??vw. j >r flowers. TO these Influences was he inlebted for much that rendered bis young life o charming and attractive, and so free from he vices that tarnish the characters of so nany. On October 19tb of his blrtb-year this lttle Jewel was dedicated lu Baptism to ltB ;racIous Donor, and by Him re-entrusted to Is parents for a season, by them to be polishid and made ready for the Master at His call. )n June 28d of the present year he ratified he dedicatory act of his parents by a public irofesslon of Christ as his Saviour. Two nonths and thirteen days later, on Septemter 6'h, 1901, bis lalth was put to Its supreme ,nd final test In the presence of the DeathIver. The crossing was narrow and soon ccomplished?only a week?but the waters Fere deep. His sufferings were Intense, but , us faith was Intenser. Calmly and trustully he passed away, beloved by all, wept by II, and laid to rest amid the sorrowful beneilctlons of all. The little sun-beam waB one, to shine henceforth among the brighter earns of Him who is the Light. W, Charles E. Ward. Charles K. Ward, father of John E.
