STOODY.--Rev. John Henry Stoody died at his summer home at Silver Lake, Wyoming Co., New York, August 17, 1933. Rev. Stoody was pastor of the Lake Como Methodist Episcopal Church two years ago and then left for his home in Buffalo, New York. He was for half a century a very prominent minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church. During his pastorate in Lake Como with his wife they made many friends. He was beloved by all for his devotion to the work of the saving of souls and his faithful service for the church. The sympathy of this community is tendered to the bereaved wife and family. Dr. Stoody in his will left $10,000 to be held in trust by the Board of the Methodist Episcopal Church in New York. The income of this is to be given each year to 10 schools as prizes to pupils who exceed in oratory or essays. Among those schools is Bethune-Cookman College and Daytona Beach. The total bequests for church institutions and relatives was $41,000.
