Rev. Dr, Kincaid Passed Continued from Page One. loss to the literary life of the city as it is to the spiritual and intellec tual life of the grpat church over which he was under shepherd. During his conscious moments in his weeks of illness, his w'hole heart was on the church and his work. He would listen to the ring of the bell, or the notes of the organ with tears in his eyes, and a prayer for "Israel” upon his lips. Itis only brother, Hon. James C. P. Kincaid, who had been wired for, ar rived last evening. Dr. Kincaid recog nized him and spoke occasionally to him. Jut.'t a few minuter, before he died he spoke to his wife and broth er, but the sentence w'as never fin ished. The tender message of fare- j Y> ell was stayed as the spirit sv/ept out into the “City Beautiful”—^the New Jerusalem. DECEMBER WEATHER. ^ ^ O The month of December just passed has an interesting history. While it v>as not the coldest ore on record, on ly twice since the weather bureau ha^ been established here has the tempera ture mean been lower. In ISi'O and in 1882 the mean temper ature was a few tenths of a degree lower than during the month in ques tion. The avera,ge for this month was 88.4 degrees. No really lov.* temperatures w'ere recorded during the month compared with ot]:er years, the lowest being but IS degrees on the 22nd instant, 5 de- gros below zero recorded in ISSO. How ever, it has been a record breaker for continuous cold weather. From the Is-t till tlip L’6th but one day the nth. was above the normal, the others showing a departure of ahnost S degrees from the seasonal average. The remainder of the month was warmer, the highest^ tem.perauire of Bij degrees occurring on thf> 2fith. The total rainfall. 2.53 inches, was ample ard well distributed throughout the month but showed a deficiency of 1.33 inches from the normal amount. The greatest amount fell on the 5th, wh?ii the only thunderstorm during the month occurred. Weather in South. By Associated Press.

Dog Law Desired Beside the petition for a bird law’ the legislature will be petitioned by the Farmers’ Union to enact a dog law, the text of which is: “The petition of the Mecklenburg Farmers’ Union to the s-enator and representatives of Mecklenburg coun ty: “We. the undersigned, petition 3’ou to enact a law, to prevent dogs from running at large outsid of incorporated towms in Mecklenburg county. We remind you that no farm animals (ex cept dogs) are permitted to run at large—not even poultry can trespass on land, if the owner of said land ob jects. W'e ask you to have it made a misdemeanor for any one to permit his dog to run at large and In addi tion to the fine add a penalty of ten dollars to go to the officer securing the conviction. Also require all dogs in the county to be listed for taxation as sheep or hogs are listed. All dogs not listed for taxation to be taxed three dollars. Make each person w’ho harbors a dog the owner of the dog. “We hope you will grant our peti tion.” Biographical. William Morris Kincaid w'as born in Utica, N. Y., in 1850 and was therefore one year beyond three score. His parents were George and Elizabeth Parshall Kincaid. Dr. Kin- cnid was one of six children, there being flve sons and one daughter. Dr. Kincaid began his education in the public schools of Utica, graduat ing at the Utica Free Academy v»dth first honor. Subsequently he went to William College from v.hich he was graduated Avith honor and from which he received Iiis degree. Dr. Kincaid wore the key—the cn- signia—of his fraternity, D. K. E., denoting that he was one of the ten highest honor men in his class. De termining to consecrate his brilliant mind to the service of Him who had gj'-en it, he entered the Tlieologica] Seminary of the Baptist church jit Rochester, N. Y. There his ability and his special fitness^for the work which he had chosen was quickly rccognized. He was a “Saul” among his fellows. Leaving the University Dr. Kincaid’s fjr.st pastorate was at the First Baptist church of Cort land. N. Y. H’fj second pastorate at the Second Bapiist church of Rond- out, N. Y.; third pastorate at First Bajitist church on San Francisco, v.hich he served for 11 years. The severing of relations with this church niarlcod a (hange in Dr. Kincaid's belief. He embraced the Presbyterian ministry, his first pastorate after doing so being at the College Presbj'- terian church at Minneapolis. It was there that Dr. Kincaid met and knew and loved—as he was loved by— Rev. Martin D. Fardin, formerly pastor of the Second Presbyterian church of this city. ^^’hile at Minneapolis Dr. Kincaid received a fiattering call to the cel- elirated I'nion Congregational church at Honolulu. He was in the midst of a splendid ministry there when called to the First Presbyterian church. Dr. Kincaid began his pastorate here March, 1907. During the four years of his pastorate he won the hearts of this people without le- gard to church affiliation, by his l>road charity, his love for his fel- lowman., the ready response that he gave to every call of distress, by his service, day and night at the sick bed, by his earnest consecra tion to his work. He won the heart, and he commanded the head. Gifted with a depth and brilliancy of in tellect that is rare even in the "College of the Apostles’’ of today, he atrrncted the ablest thinkers of the city. His fame as a scholar, as a iireacher, went throughout the Church of the South j Books were a passion with him. He not only read thorn, but he absorbed them. His range of reading, of study, seem.ed to be bou.ndless. He knew all learn ing. Each sermon he preached was a masterpiece in thought, in logic, in diction, in ornateness. Dr. Kincaid p;*ea‘hed the theme that he lived: the love of Christ. Christ and the cross were his weekly themes. He taught men to be good; to b'vo high to the Highest type—the God-m.an, j tf) seek to enter in at the straisrhtj gate. “The love of Christ constrain-1 ed him” in word and act. His faith | was proved hourly by his works, and j his works by his faith. } As a preacher he w'as great; as a pa:M,or remarkable. He grasped the full meaning of thle word pastor. Before him there burned ever the lamp of divine duly and he did it. He gave his life to his work. When he was not in his study preparing his messages to his people, he was doing pastoral work. He never tired, he never faltered. During his pastor ate there w^ere added unto the church about 400 members, the First church the largest in the General Assem.- bly. It was vrhile on an errand of mercy—of pastoral visitation—that Dr. Kincaid received the injury which hastened his death. In pasing at night along Mint street, he fell in an open ditch which had been left unguarded and dislocated one of kidneys. He had been a sufferer for nearly a year with Bright’s disease, and last s])ring was ill unto death, but recov ered. His last illness dated from the night of his fall—the latter part of No vember. Last Sermon. The last sermon that Dr. Kincaid preached was one of his greatest ef forts. The subject was “Predestina tion.”—There were many requests to have it published, and Dr. Kincaid promised the writer the manuscript •'some day v.^hen he felt well enough to get it up.” The some day never came. In the sermon he spoke of “Christ being the destiny of ev(>ry man.” That to him wa.s the meaning of predestin ation. The memory of the sermon will linger with all who lipard it. Each sermon of Dr. Kincaid’s w'ns a beautiful epigi-am, teaching love to Jesus, service to men. Family Tics. Dr. Kincaid was twice m.aried. His first v.’ife was Miss Emily Purington, of Cor.rtland, N. Y., '.vlio lived only a year after her marriage. His second v.dfe, Miss liliien Douglass, of Groton, Conn., who v.’ith their three children survives. The children are: Mr. Doug- Ias.3 Kincaid, tf Wadcshoro, Miss Anna Kincaid and .Mr. Billie Kincaid, of this city. Di'. Kincaid is also survived by his sister, i\Irs. Mary E. Cash, of Plano, California, and his brother, Hon. James Kincaid, formerly of Utica, now of Albany, N. Y. From Dr. Kincaid’s burial service the fo’iowing are taken. With tender affection and dfep sorrow his people will read th.e verses, recalling the ten der sympathy of his tone wdien called to i.he house of mourning; For death is but a covered way Thai opens up to light. Wherein no blinded child can stay Beyond his Father’s sight. ! I know not v. here His islands lift T-Vonded palms in air; I only know I cannot drift Beyond His love and care. And so beside the silent: sea I wait the muffled ear; No harm from Him can come to me, On ocean or on shore. “ ‘With silence only as their dene- diction. God's angels come; Where in the shadow of a great affl iction The soul sits dumb. God calls our loved ones; but we lose not wholi.v WTiat he has giviii. They live on earth in thought and deed as truly As in his heaven’.” Pinchot Fdcs His Plea Continued from Page Or.o, “What if some morning when the stars are paling And the dawn whitened and the East W'as clear. Strange rest and peace fall on one from the ju'esence Of a benignant spirit standing near; (2) And should tell Him as he stood be fore me; This is our earth, most friendly earth and fair. Daily its sea and short, this sun and shadow Faithful it turns, robed in its azure air. “There is blest living here, lo\ing and serving. And quest of truth and serene friend ship dear; But si ay not, spirit! earth has one destroyer,— His name is death,—flee, lest he find thee here. “And what of then while the still morning brightened And freshened in tlie Elm the sinner’s breath. Should gravel.y smile on me. the gen tle nngel. And take iv-y hand and say, 'My name is death'.” Funeral. The funeral service will be held at the church tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock. All the Presbyterian pastors of the ci^y wi. Itake part. Rev. D. Shaw, of Tenth Avenue, will ])reside. The deacons will act as active pall- bearej's and tl)e elders of the church as honorary. The remains v.dll be taken to Connecticut for burial. The famil.v wil bo :iccompanied on the sad mission by Tvlr, Holm.es Blair, repre- eentin,'.'; :he eldership, and Mr. M. B. Spier the board of deacons. Death of Pastors. The Fir»t Presbyterian church has losi for.r pastors by death; Rev. Dr. Cyrus Johnston, January 25th. 1855; Rev. Dr. A. W.
