A TRIBUTE

To the oldest member of the Ladies’ Literary Club of Rensselaer, who departed this life on February 7, 1913.

In the death of Mrs. Purcupile, our club has lost one of its mothers; and in the loss of her one cannot help but recall the many good and kind things that she has done in the years that have passed. In my earliest childhood recollections I knew her well. Her home and yard were my playground. In my early ■womanhood I knew her better, and in middle life I knew her best, for I had learned to love her pleasant ways and to know her real worth. When this club was organized, she was one of its promoters and no member ever took more interest in •its welfare than she did. She was indeed, like a mother to all of the younger members, and her fidelity to this club should be imitated by us all. For many years our meetings were held every week in the year, and it mattered not whether the sun was shining or the rain falling; she was there, ready to do anything that was assigned for her to do, and I never remember one time that she failed when on duty. Her quotations were always in her head, instead of her hanids; and her work was a pleasure to her.

She saw the good in everything. She was charitable and kind and ever displayed a true. Christian spirit. In . the early history of our club it was oiir custom to open our meetings with devotional exercises, and some of the dear old mothers would lead us in prayer, and I can never forget the sincerity of hers. Her supplications were from the heart, and with earnestness she would ask for a divine blessing upon us all. She was proud to be known as a “Soldier of the Cross,” and her pleasure in it ended only in death. In life she had that “sweet peace” within and in death received the reward that awaits the faithful. » Several years ago when by her own request she was placed upon the associated list, I told her how I regretted to see her do it. She replied by saying: ‘The time has coxne when I must stop.” It was a hard matter for her to be reconciled to the change, for she loved the work. Just a few weeks before her death she sent us her last quotation, and it was truly a fitting <sne. She fully realized that day that she was nearing the borderland; but with all that she still thought of us and said that she had longed to be with us that day, but no, it was not to be.

With tear-dimmed eyes and a warm clasp of my hand, she skid in- broken tones: “Take this to the Society,” for she called. it that always, and she gave me this quotation; “Old Age is Youth’s Richest Bloom, which ripens on the side.” It would be a great consolation to us all if we could, at the close of so long a life have so much to be proud of and so little to regret. In death) a look of peace was on her face~a look that would indicate that she had “safely crossed the Bar,” and as I saw her then these lines came to me:

“Twilight and evening bells, and after that the dark, And may there be no sadness of farewell when I embark; For, though from out our borne of time and place The flood may bear me far, I hope to see my Pilot face to face, When I have crossed the Bar.” CHARTER MEMBER. February 20, 1913.

Many persons have been in to tel! us that they have seen robins during the past few days. The robin is not considered a very safe harbinger of spring, but we always at- ; tribute the early visits of this songster as an indication that spring is not far away. Bob Mlchal says that up toward Kniman he heard ji robin chirping gleefully in a treo and an investigation showed that she had a nest all ready for business. Charles Morrell has moved to Rensselaer from Hanging Grove township and is now living in the former Stoner property in the'northwest part of town.

REV. GREEN NOT A DEPOSED MINISTER

Wife Alleges a Mis-Statement Was; - Made by Member of Woman’s Relief Corps. Editor Republican: Will you please allow' me space enough to correct an error that seems to be afloat. It has recently come to my ears that it was reported to the Woman's Relief Corps that I_was sick at a meeting held when the sta|e inspector was here the last time and it seems a discussion arose abbut calling upon sick members and the president of this local corps arose and “explained to the inspector that Mr. Green was a minister, but the Baptist Church “turned him down.” Evidently the late president believes that Mr. Green is a deposed minister, which is not true. It seems to me that the remarks were wholly uncalled for to say the least, but more than that they are not true. Now, lest the people of Rensselaer in general are under the impression that Mr. Green is a deposed minister, let me say again it is not true. Rev. J. P. Green was never deposed from the ministry. In the first place it would take morethan this little local Baptist church of Rensselaer to depose a minister. There would have to be a counsel of the ministers of the association and Charges would have to be preferred and sustained,- and no such thing ever occurred with Mr. Green, either here or anywhere else. We have always carried with us our credentials as we have moved from place to place and we brought them to Rensselaer. Mr. Green has been in the ministry for upward of forty years and we have lived in Indiana twenty-three years of that time. It is true that the Baptist church of this place told him he was not the man for this field, that he preached over the people’s heads, the common people not being able to comprehend his meaning, etc., and there is a crucifixion connected with it, but the church never questioned his honesty and they never brought charges against him of any kind. But what of it, if they did not want him? Every Baptist minister in this state or any other, so far as I know, looks forward to his crucifixion, with fear and trembling, when he enters a new field as pastor of a church. The feeling of unrest in the churches is felt and acknowledged by the smartest of the ministers. It has its sad history and is one of the things his Satanic majesty invented to destroy the church if it were possible. The crucifixion that Mr. Green had to endure here has been experienced by hundreds of thousands of other ministers all over the world everywhere where the Gospel is preached. It will be a wonder if sometime the Baptist ministers do not rise up in their might and organize against it. Other ministers have come and gone from the Rensselaer Baptist church and no one has thought aught about it. Possibly if we had “gone” no one would have thought aught about us but we did not want to go and we did not know there was any crime in staying. We are no longer young and Mr. Green has very poor health. As often as every month and sometimes oftener we have had to call the doctor and they can testify that he is very sick at such times and no one can do their best under such circumstances and we thought it not best to get another church and we remained here, and as n© Baptist minister ever gets rich as a pastor, we have to work.

I cannot tell how I felt when it was told me that our worthy president reported to the state inspector before a meeting of the corps that Mr. Green was a “turned down” minister. If any one believes that let them inquire of Deacon Perkins or Deacon Harris. Rev. 3'. P. Green is a respected Baptist minister in the state of Indiana. MRS. J. P. GREEN. March 11, 1913.

FACTS AND FICTION

Experiences of Rensselaer Gitisens are Easily Proven to be Facts. , The most superficial investigation will prove that the following statement from a resident of Rensselaer is true. Read it and compare evidence from Rensselaer people with testimony of strangers Jiving so far away you cannot investigate the ' facts of the case. Many more citizens of Rensselaer endorse Doan's Kidney Pills. Nelson Randle, N. Main St., Rensselaer, Ind., says: “I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills at different times when suffering from a lame and aching back and other symptoms of disordered kidneys. I was led to procure this remedy at Fendig’s Drug Store, by reading about its good work in similar cases. Relief soon followed its use and the backache and kidney difficulties were finally dsiposed of. Whenever I have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills since then they have lived up to representations. Ido not know of a case where this remedy has failed to prove of benefit.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United states.
