Sunday afternoon, July ?, lS?H?, at Cashiers, N. C., Capt. Thomas F. Hill quietly and peacefully entered into the "rest which remaincth to the people of God." In tlie primo ot* his manhood, in the midst of usefulness, on the sunny slope of life, he fell, pierced with the invin cible missiles of death, but he fell with his face toward "the beautiful city of God " Brother Hill was a good man; an iutelligent and devoted Methodist ; an earnest, active, zealous, consecrated Christian ; a wise, faithful, efficient and successful Sunday School teacher. By his cheerful, gentle, loving spirit in the home ; by his diligence and integ rity in business life ; by his upright and godly walk ; by his close study and consistent practice of the "Word of God, he showed forth in his daily life the manly virtues and the moral excel lencies of Jesus Christ, whose he was and whom he delighted to serve. Therefore, be it Resolved, By the officers and teachers of the St. John's Sunday School of the M. E. Church, South : I. That in the death of Capt. Hill we have lost a most earnest, devoted, efficient, faithful and exemplary co worker in the Sunday School cause. II. That in our sad loss we recognize the voice of Him who said : "What J do thou knowest not now ; but thou shalt know hereafter;" and, therefore, couiidently bow iii humble submission to the will of our Heavenly Father, who doeth all things in love and wis dom. lil. That a copy of these proceedings be sent to his sorely bereaved wife and children, with the assurance that our deepest sympathies go out to them, and that our fervent prayer is that into their lives may ever come the riches of Divine grace and the everlasting con solations of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
