If CrtARLKV was unknown to fortune and to fame '
it was because he sought neither. He was not am
bitious. As a disciple of tlie Christ he had learned, '
not to seek tlie praise and honor of men, but to win
by a life of righteousness and peace the honor and
praise that cometh from God. I .-
Charley loved the truth, and he -enjoyed the
freedom that truth alone can give. Believing with
all hts heart. God's record of his Son, he was soon
after the war, baptized . into the church of Christ
and died as he had lived, faithful tq his King. ;
He loved God and he loved his nitrlih.r
having lived peaceably and walked humbly, he rests
from bis Jabors and his works follow him.
