While he was prepared and ready to go at the Master's bidding; yet he expressed a desire to remain with his family, for whom he had a great affection. He was a kind husband and a loving father. Like the Apostle Paul, he reckoned that the sufferings of the present time were not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

Mr. Barnes, of the United Presbyterian church.
