He sailed for several years and then farmed prior to moving to town. Since living in Goderich, he had been employed at Champion Road Machinery Company as a custodian. He was a former member of Colborne Township Council and a member of Knox Presbyterian Church in Goderich.

Capital punishment.. • from page 8A other cheek, therefore he was condemning their misuse of the law for personal vengeance. The man of God was to be forgiving and loving, not marked by bit- terness and a retaliatory spirit. Jesus was speaking here to individuals, not to govern- ment. Properly constituted authorities still have the obligation to inflict just penalties upon those who break its laws. He was not nullifying the principle of "eye for aneye; and a tooth for a tooth" in this passage, but was clarifying its God - ordained role in society. As individuals we are to follow the guidline given. by Christ,• but our government cannot. If it did wicked and ruthless men would soon dominate our society, and anarchy would be the result. Government must see to it that God's principles are in force and this includes capital punishment for willful murder. REASONABLE, FAIR Capital punishment is reasonable and fair. It meets God's holy demands of justice, and acts as a significant deterrent to crime. It protects the in- nocent. Most important of all, it is commanded by God. He expects every society to carry it out and is displeased when a community disregards this important obligation. Let me ask you a personal question. Are you prepared for the day you must stand before God's tribunal? His judgments are always fair, and He never makes mistakes. He knows your sin, and its penalty is God's capital punishment, eternal separation from Him in conscious torment. The Bible says, "The wages of sin is death." But praise God, the verse doesn't end there. It con- cludes, "the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ, our Lord." The punishment for your sin has already been borne, Jesus Christ on Calvary's cross paid your penalty in full. You need only to faith- fully acknowledge your sin and believe in Him to ex- perience forgiveness of sins and to know the assurance of eternal life. Consider the alternatives seriously. To refuse Jesus Christ is to die in your sins and face eternal judgment; to accept Him is to receive full pardon and everlasting life. , This issue is clear. I urge you to accept Jesus Christ as YOUR personal ,Saviour today. Marguerite Falconer in Goderich. She survives. Also surviving are one son, Edward James (Ted) of Goderich; one sister, Mrs. Rod (Grace) Bogie of Goderioh; six grandchildren and one great-grandchild. He was predeceased by one sister, Merle Walton.
