Nash, whose djath on Tuesday nighl at I Hamlet brought deep sorrow to a great host of friends throughout North Carolina. For forty-four years doing valiant service for his God and humaniiy, L. L. Nash was a man of whom it can well be said : "Well dune, lliou good and faithful servant." Dr. Nusli was a preacher ol the people and for the people. Big in body he was big in heart, his ser mons in that direct language which marks a personal message. He saw Methodism grow in North Carolina and he was a factor in uidiug in its growth. His was not a religion of the narrow sort, not thai kind of religion which cramps men and women, bul it was an ex pansive religion. He would have men and women serve God and love Jesus Christ because of the happiness and brightness that such service and such love brought. "Dr. Nash believed in "the old time religion," and we speak in the highest praise of him when we say that he appealed to us as an "old time preacher" with a mission. His life seemed to be built up on the idea of loving men and women into ihe service of God. And his life of devotion had its effect in bringing many 10 the foot of the Cross in the search for eternal life. Dr. Nash served in many ca pacities in the Methodist Church. His work as a "circuit rider" and as pastor at important stations in bounds of the North Carolina Con ference, all bore fruit and showed that his was a service of inspira tion. A force ill the pulpit, he was a pastor who won men and wo- men in their homes and on the street. An author of religious works they will go on preaching for him though his face has been turned to the wall and he sleeps the last sleep. Of him there can be no higher tribute than 10 say that h, served humanity in his day and genera lion. The "good-night" that is said as he lays off his armor for eternal rest is a farewell of tender ness and of tears News and Ob server. Dr. L. L. Nash, the subject of the above well deserved eulogy, spent a part ol lus early lile in Halifax county, in the home of the late Rev. John W. Heptinstall There he became associated with Rev. Dr. Win. Closs, one of the big liglus in ihe M. E. Church, of (hat day. Dr. (.loss recognized the qualities in the young man and encouraged him to enter the min istry, and at a Quarterly Confer ence held in the old Literary Hall in Weldon in the fall of 1874, he was recommended to the annual lonference, soon to be held in Raleigh, and so lor forty-three years he has lived and preached the gospel as believed and taught hy ihe M. I-.. Church, South Neither did his power weaken with age, as we remember his last sermon preached in Weldon about two years ago as one ol his best Ana so wc wish to add our voice in a word of appreciation of one Ihe Heroes of Israel who has earned ihe well done" of a faith ful Lord, for in Weldon as else where he was well known and respected.
