In Memoriam

After an illness of scarce thirty-six hours, Fielding R. Flynn died at his residence in Pilot View, Sept. 13th, aged 41 years. Professed the Savior's love at fifteen, was united in marriage to miss Annie F. Rupard, at twenty years of age. A sudden transition from his home on earth to a home in heaven. God pronounced his work finished, and bade him enter into his rest, when man thought it just begun, but a "Life is scarce the twinkling of a star in god's eternal day." His death made a deep impression upon the whole community in which he lived. The large concourse that assembled to pay the last tribute of respect to his remains, and the beautiful floral offerings that covered the fresh mound fully testified to the love and general esteem in which he was held. Our deceased friend possessed many excellent traits of character, which endeared him to his fellow-men. Kind hearted and true, genial and jovial in manner and conversation, none of your long-faced, gloomy Christians, but one of God's very own light-hearted and happy children. Early in life he connected himself with the Cumberland Presbyterian Church at Sugar Ridge, where later on he served as deacon for seven consecutive years, and faithfully performed the arduous work connected with the office. Recently when our little band of members went up the Macedonian cry for help to establish a mission church at Winchester, he responded readily, by giving not only his prayers and money, but his time, too, in soliciting funds for its erection, and was successful many times, where others would have failed; but his labors here are ended, his earthly mission fulfilled and the spirit gone to obtain its reward. Our hearts go out in sympathy for his bereaved family. We vainly wish for some sweet, comforting words of consolation, but Jesus has given them all in His holy Word Look into Him for strength and comfort, believing "He will not fall thee nor forsake thee." One more name is now added to the list of loved ones in the home of the redeemed awaiting the coming of our aged mother, a sorrowing wife and loving sons.

"Oh, how sweet it will be in that beautiful land,
So free from all sorrow, and pain;
With songs on our lips, and with harps in our hands,
To meet one another again."
