HOWE.--John W. Howe was born in Knox, New York, February 21, 1808, and died in the city of New York, February 10, 1879. He was the son of Rev. Bezaleel Howe, who for many years was a member of the New York Conference. Brother Howe made a profession of religion in early life in the city of Albany, and on his removal to New York united with the Bedford Street Methodist Episcopal Church. For more than fifty years he was connected with the Eighteenth Street Methodist Episcopal Church, and was one of its most active and influential members. He filled nearly every office in the Church as layman, with honor to himself and with great acceptance to his brethren. He gave his time, talents, and money to promote the cause of temperance, education, and religion, and was among the foremost to aid in all beneficent and moral reforms. He lived long, and lived well, and died leaving behind him an example of integrity in business, of affection in the family, and of devotion to the Church and religion, that is worthy the imitation of all who knew him in life, and who lament him in death.
