TRIBUTE OF RESPECT,
TO THK MF.MOHY OF
DR. WjS. EDWIN &ARGAN.
At a regular church meeting of the
Etenrzer Baptst Church, the following
remarks and resolutions were offered 1 y
Dr. J. H. Blackwell, and unanimously
ado ted:
Brother Moderator and Biethren: I rise
to peform a solemn and affecting dntv.
Solemn, in consequence of the nature of
th se reflections which the occasion ne
cessarily calls up; and affecting, terause
the subject of tliese remarks had wound
himself around the hearts of us all.
Since our last church conference, it
has pleased an all-wise Providence to lake
fibm our little circle a beloved brother.
In 'In* death, of brother William Edwin
Dargan, each member of this church,
each memter of this community has sus
tained an individual, an irreparable loss.
In the vigor and bloom of manhood, in
the midst of a life of iTseiiiliiess, surroun
ded by those whom he lovt*d and cherish
ed, whose purse and person, and whose
every energy were devoted to the service
of our God, he has been suddenly lakon
Irom among us.
Leaves have their time to fall,
And flowers to wither at the north wind's ,
breath,
And the stars to set: But all—
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, O
death!
To our eyes, which cannot penetrate
the dim vista of futurity, nor comprehend
the mysterious dealings of God with his
creatures, his death may appear prema
ture; but a Christian cannot die tefore
his time; the Lord’s appointment is the
servant’s hour. And God, who overrules
the destiny of his own church, hath chas
tened us in love, and doubtless bath vis
ited us with this calamity for our good.
Opr brother was truly a prop and a P il-,

and devotion 'tv the service of God, be
