No! | unlike the great martyr Lincoln in physique, he was not unlike him in tho strong I points of his charactei and mental peai- ' liarities. Ho was a constant and reverent attendant upon Divine service in this and other Methodist churches, and p. s sessed a wonderful knowledge ot the Bible. Frugal and economical in managing bis means, he was liberal and generous in distributing charities and in supporting tho Church; not endowed with brilliant talent, he possessed the men valuable qualities of a noble h* art, a sound understanding, a patriotic spirit, a conscientious regard for duty, and Ii delity to his convictions; not highly polished on the exterior, he had an allec tionatc heart, great kindness and sympathy for Hie unfortunate, a winning sitn plicity and artlessness, a rich fund of anecdote and wit, and in every circle was felt to bo more than an ordinary man.
