ferns and beautiful flowers more em
blematic of the new life unto which
this one loved and lost a while had
entered for not till the light of morn
eternal breaks o'er the hills of time

appreciation in which he is held by
the Camden I|3ptists "for if a man's
work abide he shall receive his re
ward." ' /

and adbpted by a rising vote of the
entire congregatior^and many beauti

those who had labored with him in
the more than three years of his
