It

l

labored |
in Sincerity and Truth.
You were indeed
|
a
true Shepherd
to your flock a
Pastor,
whose advice
was cheerfully given when-
ever sought.
Wa shall miss you greatly,
but,
nevertheless
the will of the Master
must
be
done.
Almighty God
knows
"~ and
He does
all for
the best;
therefore

‘we His children
must
be satisiied,
for
w~
know
that it is yourill-health that causes
" you to leave

Asa true and loyal ser-
.vant
of God,
you
were
afriend
to
us,
"and rhereiore

you,
as will also all
that eame
in

with
you.
You are
going from

and
we may
never

School
in
which

labored
earnestly,
and
faithfully,
we
trust
the
Great
God will earry
you
safc,

if it

you'
We know that during
vour
illness
you
were
not
able to
be with
us
in

but
we
always
realized
that
your
heart,
soul,
and mind
were
always
with
us.
We have
bgen
gredtly blessed
with
your ministry amongst us,
and
we
are
sure
that,
wherever
