He lived within the bounds of the South Carolina Confer ence, which he joined at its next session. tee of her Colleges, and once a dele gate to the General Conference.

He leaves behind him five sons and one daughter, a large circle of rela lives and friends to mourn 'over his death. But he has left them a rich legacy in the pure and faithful life which he lived. Experimental religion was his great theme; and he exhibited it as a controlling power in all the relations of life.
