RICHARD PAUL. Quietly, pesoa?nily and triumphantly name the aloes of this earthly life to Rev, Richard Paul, a well known and maob esteemed citizen of Brneeele, last Sabbath morning, when at 2. 30 o'oloak his spirit was beckoned away from the earthly temple to the mansion eternal. Oo the Sabbath two weeks previous ha preached hie last sermons at Walton, assisting Rev, AlEred Andrews in the quarterly oommanion services, On arrival home that evening he was seized with a pain in his heart, a difficulty of reepiration and a weakness, that to the phyoioian who was celled, betokened a speedy dissolution unless relief came. The reverend gentle- man did rally for a time with occasional sinking spells but on Saturday morning early be felt his earthly career was well nigh closed so °ailed for a couple of friends to whom he gave direotione as to bis funeral service, burial, eta. Shortly before he passed away he was able to sit up in bed and partook of light refresh- ments and after lying down he closed his eyes on earthly eoenea and entered into rest. His countenance woe placid evidencing the calm in bis soul as the end drew near. During Mr. Paul's d ver obese full aonveree y E illness he y e o r l l h wltb many who Dolled to see him on the neoessity of living the strenuous life as a small return for the goodness of God and expressed hie confidence in the Friend who was with him for so many years in his extended and busy life. Mr. Paul will be greatly miseed ae be was connected with so many organizations private, religious and public. He was President of the Bible Society here ; Treasurer of the Temperance organize,. tion ; Chairman of the Board of Health for the town and in oharge of several estates as agent, Then with bis many calls to preach, the care of his floe gar. den and home meant ao activity not practised by many men of 77 years of age. Anything Mr. Paul undertook to do was wellldone and with a promptness that was refreehing. While devoted and loyal to the Methodist oburoh he knew no denominational lines if he oonld be of service in any good aquae and as a eon• sequence was known for many miles as his parish was a large one. Since hie superannuation, 17 years ago, he had preached 800 sermons besides delivering mores of attdresees at Sabbath Bobool and ohurob gatherings, indicating to a alight degree the zeal manifested. He was a mem of more then ordinary ability ; a clear, logical preaoher ; the personifies. tion of geuislity, a writer of many help. ful artiolee and poeeeeeed of considerable poetic genius but the uppermost thought of hie life was to point people to the Lamb of God and we doubt not that he will have many elate in lila Drown ae the result of his faithful ministry.
