Died. Henry GLINES, of Hardin, Aug. 5th. aged 59 years and 24 days. Of Mr. GLINES it may be said he was an exemplary Christian man. Among his last words were these: "There is not a cloud" and soon aferward he fell asleep in the arms of his Saviour. He leaves to mourn his loss a kind Christian companion, which is to her a severe blow, may God's grace sustain her in this her time of affliction and she has the sympathy of scores of friends, who share with her in her sorrow. The village in which he lived has lost one of her best and most worthy citizens. The Church of which he was a member, have lost a power and a worthy christian. He was always ready to discharge his duty in the cause of his Maker; and his kind words, example and exhortations live with us, though he rests from all his labors. The funeral sermon was preached by Rev. R. D. McCORMACK, text -- II Timothy, IV Chapter 6,7 and 8 verses.
