Mr. G. had been a bright and effeicent member of the Baptist Church for many years and in all his intercourse with his fellow-men exemplified the Christian character in its most beautiful and humble features. He has left a large family and many friends to mourn their irrearable loss; but all must feel the proud consolation of believing that he has left a world of vanity and trouble to enjoy that eternal life of substance and peace which is promised to all who "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and keep his commandments".
