He in early life made a profession of religion, and united himself with the Baptist church at Bruington, then u___ ___ pastoral care of the eminent R. B. Semple. In the year 1833, being fully convinced that the cause, as plead by the feeble band of Disciples, was in accordance, with the word of God, he identified himself with them, knowing the odium and suffering which such a step would bring upon him.

he passed quietly away. He was consious of his situation, and calmly met his
last ____.
