Text Any textual data included in the document OBITUARY. Thursday evening, October 16, 1902, Edward P. Noyes, after long months of suffering fell asleep in Jesus, and Sab- bath afternoon under the beautiful sunshine of a perfect October day, all that remained to earth was laid to rest in Mound Hill cemetery beside the loved parents who have been sleeping there for many years. A large circle of sor- rowing friends gathered to pay the last tribute of love and respect in the church, where beautiful flowers expressed the love and sympathy of dear friends, and the draped organ, sorrow for the loss of the master's touch. Messages had been sent across the sea to anxious ones in China that they might be present in spirit. Loving tender hands bore him to his last resting place and sweet voices which in the past had so often joined with his in the songs of the sanctuary, sang once more for him the hymns he loved, "Rock of Ages," "Thy will be done," and "They are gathering homeward from every land," the music of the latter his own comp- sition. His present pastor, Mr. Sheeley, with Mr. Notestein by whom he was ordained as an elder, and Mr. Elliott who received him into the church, with the pastors of the other churches in Seville and Elder James Stoaks were present to share in the last services, and to testify to the beauty and strength of his Christian character and the value of his Christian work. To each of the pastors with whom he had shared in the care of the church he had been a constant friend, an able helper, a tower of strength. In his death the church loses a faithful elder, the session its clerk, the Sabbath School its Superintendent, the choir its chorister and organist, and the home its head and center. In all these different positions he had shown the same kind, gentle, unselfish spirit, and rendered the same faithful efficient service. Ever inclined, in lowliness of mind, to esteem others better than himself, only those who knew him best knew the beauty of his character. Ever ready to heed the call of duty, he considered the interests of Christ's kingdom before everything else, and responded promptly to every call for service, for as he sometimes said, "the King's business requires haste." His warm sympathy was ever given to those who were in affliction, and they were always remembered in his morning and evening prayers in the family circle, as were those in the community who had not yet accepted for themselves the blessing of salvation. His prayers and words of comfort, help, encouragement and instruction in the prayermeeting and in the Sabbath School will not soon be forgotten. Many earnest prayers from loving friends have gone up for him during these months and they are doubtless "Answered in God's own best way" and "Sometime we'll understand." Through the long, weary months of suffering which wore his life away no word of complaint passed his lips until made "perfect through suffering" he went home to be "forever with the Lord." Among his papers were found the fol- lowing lines written several years since, expressing his anticipations of the heav- enly home: There is a happy land Where God and Christ abide Prepared for all the saints For whom the Savior died. There they shall ever shine Bright as the noonday sun. When done with things of Time And life's short day is done. There is a promised land For all, who love the Lord, Who strive to do His will, Obey His holy Word. The Lord to each will say Abide at my right hand, Well done thou faithful one Enter the promised land. There is a holy land Where those that enter in Forever shall be free. From every taint of sin They shall be purified When passed from earth below, In Jesus' precious blood Washed whiter than the show. There is a blessed land Where there will be no night, There we will need no sun, For God will be the light. From sorrow, death and pain We ever shall be free, And in that blessed land We'll spend eternity. 讣告。 1902 年 10 月 16 日星期四晚上， Edward P.
