a!toi For tho Son of man couioth at ah
hour when yo think not.
Tho funoral tcrviccs of Mr. J.S. Davit,
held in tho Pretbytrinn church of this
.city, on Sunday morning laU, woro of a
vory solomn and Impresslvo character.
' They wero commenced by tho choir
singing that beautiful chant, "Thy will bo
dono." Aftor the reading of appropriate
scripturo selections and prayer, thu choir
sang a swoot hymn of.which the following
. Is a part :
"Where wo oft have met In gladness .
On tho holy Sabbath day j
Now wo gather In our sadness,
Mourning over one Wuy."
, Then followed tho tormon, which wo
glvo below, after which tho choir sung a
most nppropriato selection beginning,
"ltoU, "Weary Heart."
Tin: BKRMON.
My brother in Christ, with whom I so
often took sweet counsel, and whoto
prayers for thopeaco of Jerusalem woro so
frequent and fervent, ha9 gone, in tho
twinkling of an oyc, "Over tho River," to
sea that Jesus whom ho loved, and with
mm 10 awcu lorovcrmore.
. Ills teat at tho homo clrclo nnd in tho
house of prayer is vacated. His voico is
hushed in tho sllcncoof thn grave. Ills
warm Christian greetings arc nil numhermt
and finished? Tho" songs ho sung havo
merged inlojicavcnly hossnnas and hit
lorm I shnll'tiod1 no more. My friond.
tho friend of God, has gono quickly to tlm
ciernai worm, i ivel lliorelorn in tliough
ono of tho mourners worn attoinptini; to
address you this morning. My heart
cries out, why is this thus V Thu answur
comes : "Do still and know that I um Uod."
ilBo yo thoroforo ready Hlto."
It comes to pass, now and then, in tho
strangely complicated history ot human
lifo, that tho tender words tho soft, kind
accents of love, fulling from tho lips
of the tiring speakor, sound gloomily and
gralo harshly on tho mourner's car : bo
causo a sudden, appalling, unexpected and
crushing weight of comfortless sorrow lies
hard upon the soul. Itachola are they,
mourning nnd refusing to bo comforted
harps, lying prono with broken strings,
that will not respond to tho touch of
the musician's band. Ahl bruised roods,
broken itaQV, aching hearts I Ttu Great
Healer, tho Divino Physician, has a balm
for them that tho world knows not of.
Sometimes n nation, city, community,
or family is suddenly borrio down by the
"avenging tide of calamitous vislt 'tions,
'and stands appalled at tho mognitudu of
, the desolation.
When ono of our, great cities ut tho
'West, and thou another at tho East, full
vjctims totho rago and fury of tho devour
ing conflagration; when Lincoln sunk in
dcnthundor'lhoaitaf sin's bullet; when thu
great light in tho editorial rooms of tho
-JNew York 'Tribune' was quenched in tho
darkness ot death, tho republic
ttood aghast, as u shudder quivered along
u'nation's nerves. Thus,-sometimes over
u peaceful housohold thero gathers a dark
forbidding cloud, and from its thick folds
a bolt, .armed with destruction, darts
swiftly down and plunge ih family into
profoundest grief, so it was in that
dreadful event that summoned souio of iu
so quickly, u low nights ago, to that home
over which hangs tha dark pall of mourn
ing, llko tho sabTo robu of night.
As accurate intoliigcnca camo from tho
scene of disaster, and tho droadful rumors
grew Into thu frightful reality; as darkness,
fcilencc and death reigned sadly around, it
scetned as though tho vory words of tho
text would llumu out on tho darkness:
"Bo yo thoroforo ready ulso; for the
Son of Man comcth at an hour when vo
think not."
When my oyo saWj what my oar had
heard, 1 thought how truo thu couplet:
" Oh God 1 It Is a dreadful thing
To, km! the human soul thus take wing."
Mr. Joseph S. Davlf, whosu untimely
death has cast n gloom over our city, and
causes u to mourn, was burn iu Colum
biaria'county, Pennsylvania, May 27, ltiJl.
Ho wnt, when called to his lliml reward,
1 yoars of ago. Ho made a public pro
fession of ChrUt, ' tcforo men, at Kvuiib
ville, Indiana, iu tho year 18C7. In ItiGd,
he moved to this city mid united with this
church. For four years hu Itborcd nnd
worshipped with this pcoplo in tho bonds
of Christian love. liy hit daily
walk, conversation and Christian
deportment he exemplified tho religion of
Christ and endeared himtolf to thu hearts
of all. lie woro tho ornaments of a mock
and quiet spirit. Ho was unatsumlng,
unubtruiive, cheerful and pleasant, und
bore daily witness to his union with Chrinl.
lilt lifo was "hid with Christ und God."
As ho advanced in-yeart, ho grow in gracu:
a living Christian, "known and read of
men. As a huthand und father, ho was
gratly beloved. The quick and
terrible sundurlng of thuio fond
home llet K-lt the turvlvlng friends
"Palo with grief, haggard with caic,
Obantly attendants ol loilorn despair."
"When thut fond father and loving hut
band wat taken from his family, m ho
was. in one brief moment, n deutely durk
shadow full on that household. A cloud
cumoover thorn that teemed, for it little
time, to havo no "ailvor lining." Such
grief at that only "ho that ficlt it,
knowt,"
At a Chrittian, Mr. Davit
wat oarneit, devoted mid consistent.

What more startling or Impressive admo
nition can wo have to set our houses in
order, and havu our lamps trimmed und
burning? If wo will not hear und heed
this, wo wduld not bu movtfd "though ono
rossi from tho doad." When u
duath-laduued bolt flies nnst ui. with
tho swiftness of thu wind, and strikes
down a brother ut our tide, doos it tiottuy,
as is hurtles by, "boyo, therefore, ready
also; " and shall wu not regard Iff O I 1
doubt if words can add nnythlng to thu
imprcssivcncstnnd solemn meaning 6f this
lesion. Ahl how weak and Impotent a
thing Is human eloquence, in Its best es
tate, when such a tnumo as this claims
audience That letson, "bo yo, therefore,
roudy also,'' is written for us in glowing
lines of living light that cannot bu effnecd.
Tho death of Mr. Davis, so dreadful In
.itself un'd in all tho attendant circum
ftnuccs, comes clearly ni.d fully within thu
tcopo of God's overruling provlduncu.
God's tuind was in that event. Hu look
his fidlhful servant h'imu In tho way ho
did, nnd it becomes u to say : "Even so,
Father, fur to it seameth good in Thy
tight." Tho fact thai an event Is sud
den, unexpected nnd appulling in its
nature does not removo it beyond tho
limit of God's Jurisdiction, nor take it out
of tho Almighty's hand.
Uro this hour God has called bis much
Joyed children to tholr hcavonly
home, somo by Hood, soma by
pestilence, nnd romn from out thu
midst of fuguots, smokini; around a mar-
lyr'sstake. And he "docth all things woll."
Tho unseen, whittling bullet has cut down
many a sheen of the Savior's fold, and tent
it on to pastures green and fair. And it is
woll.
In tills r.ffitctlng providenco there is
much that is mysterious. "God movos in
mvstonous way." His ways are inscrutublu.
e do not presumo to sound thu great
deeps of his providonco. This passing
event, tnat nan left a widowed mother and
fatherless babes in Its wake, has imposed
burdens hard to be borne. It has bid tliesn
mourning ones drink tho very wormwood
of sorrow to Its dregs. And yet it
is tho Fathor's hand that wields tho chast
ening rod. It cannot bo otherwise. 1
snouiu snuuuer to tuinx, that some
blind, irresponsible, ill-fated, or ma
licious chance had wrought this
work, nnd thus hurried n'sou! into
tho spirit-land, unhidden, unexpected, un
looked for, astonishing tho inhabitants of
honven by its coming, us well ns thn dwell
ers upon earth by its departure Such nn
interpretation is shrouded in gloom ; a
horror of ureal darkness is upon it. Out
of it there comes no rv of Hunt nor mor-
el of comfort. It drives afflicted ones to
tho dreary roalms of cold nad chcorlcts fatality.
"Dcsolnto mountain of hopeless dctpalr,
One long, loud ahrlek hwells on it.i air,
'And ull Ih tad nnd client thero."
Ohl how much wiser and better It is:
how much moro consistent, coiufortini'
and satisfactory it It, to look up through
tho' dark clouds of this sad and torrowtul
beroavemont, and dlicoru a Father's hand!
How much moro in kueiiim: with tho dic
tates of sound wisdom and trusting faith I
now vastly superior is laltli to tntalllv.
"Truo taith is tho oyu of thu soul. Faith
lights us through tho dark to Deity; faith
builds a bridge across tho gulf of death ;
faith uvorraoro looks upward."
ainco wo are summoned to so mournful
a duty as this, I am glad tlmt II is my
privllegu to testify in tho hearing of tlietu
mourning friends, nnd before Milt aoern
bly, that that husband, fathor, brother and
friend, now gono, was a child of God, n
follower of thu Limb, and nn heir of tho
kingdom and crown. Ho lived by faith
on tho Son of God. I'orlmps no nue
am on g us wus so woll proparud to gu as he.
1 counsel this stricken houKohold there
foro that thoy "sorrow not even as other
which havo no hope."
O, thou afflicted one, "totcd with
tempest and not comforted," take t hyllt
tlo ones nnd go to thy heavenly Father.
Lay thy burdens on tho Loror'tuid "ho
thall sustain t'u-u." "Hu shall deliver
thoo in tlx troubles." ''Tho eternal God
is thy refuge, and uudernenth aro tho ovor
tatting arms; for ho makcth toro nnd
bindotli un; ho woundeth and his hiinds
mako wholo." I commend you thoroforo
to God and to tho word of hisgraco; for
behold "a Father of tho fatherless nnd n
Judge of tho widows !s God in his holy
habitation." And ''my heart's detlru anil
prayer to God" is that this toro visitation
may prove a blotting to this community.
May this warning voico, sounding so clear
Irlevory rar.bohoird and obeyed ; may tho
lesion of the text find a placo in every
heart : "Uo yo therefore ready nlto; for
tho Sou of Man comoth at an'hour when
yo think not." "Prepare to meet thy
God."
Leaved havo their times to fall.
And flower to wltlicr at the North wind's
breath,
Ami ttars to tot but all,
Thou bait nil ea-nni, (orthlno own, O death.
