corat feagins I 1 have had in this case wag when he came into my office to attend a board tr and told ma he had been consulting a couple of physicians who had told him he had a touch of paralysis his countenance bore evidence of that fact and I 1 told him to get into my carriage and I 1 would anve him homei did so we all know how ha has suffered since I 1 have often thought since what a blessing it would be if he would pass away beyond the vail I 1 have thought that I 1 would wish ruch a myself I 1 have known the anxiety of the bamily and it ig very natural that they should feel this way for their husband their father and their friend I 1 hive passed through a similar ordeal to this I 1 have had similar feelings aa the bereaved family of the deceased brother Loveless 1 am satisfied was prepared for the change 1 can speak for him aa I 1 have known him the last twenty one years during which lime I 1 have been cloisey connected with h m I 1 regret somewhat that he has not eft behind him a of his life yet shohe who know of his life and of uis integrity to god and to hia families and to whom he was called to pre aule over an eulogy would be unnecessary on this occasion so aar aa L know he had many arienda and few enemies it is not my purpose to speak lengthy on this oc casion there are many who have been acquainted with him than I 1 have who would doubtless like to eay some abins to his memory but this I 1 feel like saying tc the wives and children of the deceased deca ased do not for bour and father although you liaa his society and companionship it ia very natural to mourn because of his losa we 1 11 mourn hia loss aa a brood defender of zion aa a good citizen we have no occasion boeyer ho eyer tc icum hia koin because he waa not prepared he wag not like one who wag wayward and negligent but he haq prepared to go to meet those who edve gone before him and those who are worthy to follow him if we do not walk in the of life like he haa done then we will have cause to mourn brother lovelean Love leaa loved walk in the ways of the lord and he done so in the face of all odds I 1 dc not propose to say anything further here are others here who desire tomay god
