Brother L. I. Bodenhamer—Dear
By and through the goodness
and mercies of an all-wise God, I am
still the spared monument of his
amazing mercy, and blessed with an-
otlier opportunity of sending on for
the little soul-cheering messenger,
Zion’s Landmarks, which i.s a source
of great consolation to a banished ex
ile, as I seem to be, excluded from the
])]easure of my being with or hearing
the gospel proclaimed through a cru
cified and risen Saviour. Brother
Bodenhamer, since my last correspon
dence with you, the God of heaven
has again restored unto me a poor
sinful and vile wretch my health,
for which I wish and desire to praise,
magnify and adore my God and Sa
viour for his goodness toward the
children of men. I had almost des“
paired of ever being well again.—■
Brother Bodenhamer, if you or any
of the dear brethren should ever pass
by Charlotte, please call on me. I
would be glad even to see one of my
dear brethren or sisters of the Old
School order. Remember me, my
dear brethren and sisters, at a throne
of grace. I remain
Your unworthy brother,
HARGIS FARTHING.

OBITUARY.
Bbothkr Bodknhambu :—By the request
of the rolatiyes I send you the following
obituai’y notice of our aged father and
brother, WHITTENTON WIGGINS, who
died at his residence in Stuart county,
Ga., on the 5th of January, 1868_ and in
the 77th year of his age.
Brother Wiggins was bom and raised in
Franklin county, N. C., and emigrated to
Georgia, where he spent the remainder of
bis days; he was the son of Archey and
Sarah Wiggins. Brother W. had been iden
tified with the Primitive Baptists for over
forty years, and a meinberof the church at
Harmony for thirty years, and was invaria
bly sent as her messenger to the Harmony
Association. He lived and died strong in
tlie faith of the Primitive Baptists. His
disease was dropsy of ihe chest and palpi-
tation of the heart, with which he suffer
ed a great deal, being confined to his bed
for five weeks. He talked freely on the
subject of death, and expressed himst^lf
as being ready and willing to go and be
with Jesus. He left a wife and three
daughters and seven grand children with
many fiieuds to mourn their loss, but
they sorrow not as those wh» have no hope.
He was very kind and affectionate to his
children and grand children; they will
never cease to remember and speak of his
kindness.
Why do we mourn departing friends,
')r shake at death's alarms,
Tis but the voice that Jesus sends
To call them to His arms.
Brother Wiggins leaves no son to benr
his name. May the Lord sustain tho be
reaved family.
