GREENSBORO DAILY WORKMAN. Vol. X.-Non4 UEEENSBOIIO. N a, SATURDAY AFTERNOON, OCT. as. 1692. Price $3.00 Pev tear. Llfa and Oharaoter of Bev . F. Ohrnm. Her. W, F. Ohrum, son of Mr. Columbui Ohrnm and bis wife Annie, was born at Finksburg, Md., Septem ber 5th, 1803, and at bia death was aged 29 years, 2 month and 14 days. IIo was one of six children, four sons and two daughters. After the ordinary primary training in the public schools of Finksburg our young brother spent two years betweon Western Maryland college sfed the Theological Seminary at Westminster, Md., ' after whioh . be spent a year in study under his broth er, Bev. S. 0.. Ohrum, at Delta, Penna. , quitting a lucrative secular business to engage in the work of the ministry to which the Master bad called him. From May 13th 1891, until No vember 8th of the same year he filled the pastorato of Albemarle circuit, N. G. conference, which was bis first charge, and when be first developed that wonderful magnetism which drew all hearts to him, his labors being crowned Jwith the accessions of twenty fire members to bis charge and re markable general prosperity on that field of work. On returning from Albemarle at tho close of his engage ment, he returned to his studies at Delta, from which place he was called to the pastorate of the young flock in this city, arriving here April 7th, 1892. His affectionate earnestness of man ner; bis cheerful, childlike, unquesj tioning, realizing faith; bis thorough and unreserved consecration of all bia time and all his powers to his chosen work; his steady and unabating seal for the glory of God and the salvation of souls; his unaffected catholicity of spirit, and his constant and tireless application to tho cause of tho Master these traits. of character won for him the respect, the esteem and the love on every hand whioh constitut8 his death a wide-spread calamity. Possessing these traits, as the writer is assured that he did, one may readi ly account for the suooess whioh at tended this lamented young brother from the time of his arrival at Oreens boro until he had finished his career. The number of members in this little flock when he came, was 33, and( at the time of his death the number Was 75 all this in a short period of time. His pastoral visitations were on a soale of almost marvellous extent, in all directions, among all classes and .to widely separated points. The lan guage of all his cheerful, loving, self consuming ministrations was: - "I delight to do thy will, 0, God . yea, thy law is within my heart." y But though one might say in truth that the measnre of public respect and honor shown to the memory of the deoeased in the services pf bis' funeral obsequies was full and complete in 1 every particular, thero will still, be found many hearts who will testify of a sorrow yet unspoken and , of a sense of loss yet unexpressed; and many more there" be, who, ' peering into the "clouds and darkness whioh overspread tho Throne," would fain find a solution of, the inscrutable Providence whioh baa taken the work man from his unfinished work. But - turning from all these fruitless ques tionings, there is abundant comfort 1 in the thought, God reigns, controls all events, never willingly affiiots, and makes no mistakes. . And so let the , survivors bnt emulate the example of :.(li3,"that tbeir portion may be like! Mule Thief.
