The following resolution has been
prepared by order of the Quarterly
Board of James st, churchat-its re-
gular meeting on Feb. 10th, 1898 :--
"Resolved
-"Resolved that the members o2 this Quarterly
Official Board. desire to place on record their
deep sense of the loss sustained by the death of
Brother Richard Pickard and also their'high
appreciation of his many sterling qualities.
Brother Pickard was converted to God through
the instrumentality of this church, and at once
became an active member of its ranks and
very soon took a useful place among its officials.
Ho has long held the offices of Steward and
Trustee. In these and other positions his in-
fluence for good was very marled. His words
wore few, pointed and influential, his attitude
-was evon,kind and tending to peace. His con-
tributions to the church, funds were free and
generous. The needy found in him a ready
friend, As a citizen he was highly esteemed,
as abusiness man the community had con-
fidence in his integrity. We hereby extend to
Mrs. Pickard and family our sympathy in thou
bereavement, their losswas sudden and heavy,
but can they rejoice in the assurance that their
loss was to the departed a welcome home, a
"well done," and a "crown of life,"
