Wilkitss has casta over our domestic circle and iioeoe in which lor iiast four lived and sec: to enjoy ill the comforts of his newly selected home in the for West; away from lov-' motlu'r, kin listers and aihrtionate brother, of wliom and of whose kindness lie so often spoke; more partieulur-lv of his kindly old christian mother. tie decliidng years were a source of ob-astire to Lim, as lie often spoke of her ehristalu integrity and faith in God. As Ie- was a strong believer in the christian religion it enabled him to believe that, as his mother grew weak in her declining years, that she became stronger and stronger in her faith in Jesus as her all sufficient Savior. lie Oite 'puke of the ood words spoken to him by that dear old mother, and the many prayers that had gone up to a throne of glory in his behalf. I am strongly of the opinion that those petitions were answered, as the Dr's conversation and deportment corresponded to that of a christian in life.

I often talked wi'h him on the subject of Christian religion I found his mind to be clear in ref-rence to it. Xo one eouli give such clear views upon the subject! tud-ss he had been with Christ and 1 arned of him. The doctor's place in the prayer meeting, the Sunday School and at the hour of preaching will be missed by us who knew him best. As his name has been transferred and. tin relation be sustained to the v'hurc' 1 militant on earth, we believe he lias joined the society of those who constitute the Church triumphant above.

Happy thought for those, who survive him, as we are deprived of his loving society and fowl associations here, that we are maided by faith, in view of his life, to look beyond this vale of sorrow and tears when we are so often compelled to shed the parting tear ovci our near and dear frhmds.
