Ward, of the Cum berland Presbyterian Church, and Rev. J. S. Hays, of the Presbyterian Church. The committee having retired, the meeting was feelingly addressed by Rev. Dr. Lindsley, who spoke of the noble and exalted traits of character of the deceased - among which be singled out that of charity, as pre-eminently exhibited in his life and labors in all the varied relations in which the speaker had known him, of pastor and counsellor, co-presbyter and Christian.
