TO A FRIEND OF KAN
My friend, Will T. Adams, while
in your harness doing your daily
task, you answered the call of the
reaper and went to that heavenly
home where the carc3 of this world
are no more. My Friend Will, you
were an inspiration to me, and not
alone to me but to all who knew you.
With a smile and a hearty Christian
greeting you met me a few days since
when I last saw you when you were
at your work and asked me about
the Bible school lesson as we have
often talked before and the bright
ness of your smile and greeting I
shall never forget. To have known
you as I hvae has been an inspiration
for better work and a more faithful
Christian life. Your life has been a
benediction to all who have really
known you for yours has been one of
rich Christian exporience. To have
the Eun set on a life like that which
you have lived is a great solace and
to have left such a memory to the
family and to the friends is more
than worth while. Gooduye, your go
ing has caused us sorrow, but we arc
pleased that we have known you.
We are hoping to see you again.
