Lie was married to Missouri Terry May 17, 1S75. With his two weeks of untold suffering not a murmur came from his lips. He was wholly resigned to the will or a kind, heavenly Father, and was ever ready to give a kind and loving word to all his friends, trusting in the wisdom of his dear, loving Savior, and expressing himself ready and willing to go at the summons of his Master. As we look upon his cold and lifeless form in sadness and into the grave with sorrowrthere comes a mingling of joy that the bright and beautiful testimonies he gave his friends, and more especially his wife and children, breaks the horror of death and we are led to exclaim, "O, death, where is thy stingV O, grave, where is thy victory?'" The giving up of such a beautiful life is only the refining fire that burns the dross out of our souls and fits us for the home beyond. Father, we are loth to give you up, but we would not dare to call tnee back. Gone to sing the songs of heaven, with his voice tuned to the music of angels, enjoying the companionship of father and mother, and to add one more jewel to the crown of our heavenly King. 1-Ie leaves two brothers, five sisters, a wife and seven children, and a host of friends to mourn his death. Heavenly Father, give us giace and courage to so live that -when the "summons" comes the Master will exclaim, "Well drne, thou good and faithful serva^*-, enter thou into the joys of thy lord." The funeral was conducted by Rev. Stockbarger. Interment at Harshbargor cemetery.
