ADAMS, JOSEPH B.-The son of John and Lydia (Bruce) Adams was born in Chester Co. Pa., in 1801. He made a profession of religion in 1819, and graduated at Jefferson College, Pa. in 1820, and Princeton Seminary, N. J. in 1826. He was licensed by Huntingdon Presbytery, and served as a missionary within their bounds. In 1828 he was employed by the American Sunday-school Union, and labored in New York and Pennsylvania establishing Sabbath-schools and preaching the gospel. He was ordained by Huntingdon Presbytery in 1830, and labored in Georgia as a missionary for about sixteen months; he then removed to Alabama, joining Tuscaloosa Presbytery and preaching for two churches in Green Co. in that state. He afterwards was pastor at Washington and at Greensburg, Indiana, and at Urbana and Gallipolis, Ohio. His own Presbytery (Tuscaloosa, Alabama) invited him to act for one year as missionary in its own bounds, after which, in 1848, he removed to Mississippi, and took charge of Montrose and Paulding churches, sixteen miles apart, and lived in that wild and forest-covered country till 1851, when he removed to Pennsylvania. He was pastor first of Shade Gap and Waterloo churches, in Huntingdon Presbytery; then, in 1853, of the combined churches of New Berlin, Mifflinburg, and Hartleton, Pa. in Northumberland Presbytery. In 1859 he became stated supply of the Newton Church, Pa., in Luzerne Presbytery. Here his Sabbath's work was such as few men at his age would be able to perform. Two or three sermons, a ride of several miles, and the hearing of a Bible-class generally, made up his Sabbath labors, besides which he preached during week nights in country school-houses. During his pastorate at New Berlin, he frequently rode five miles on winter nights, and home again, for the sake of keeping up a prayer-meeting in one of his other churches. From Newton church he was persecuted by those whom he offended by his steadfast loyalty to the government, still he continued to preach and to pray for the success of the Union cause, until at length the persecution becoming intolerable, and a better field of usefulness being opened, he engaged in the service of United States Christian Commission, in which he labored until within a few days of his death. All who knew him there, testify to his untiring labors in the cause of the sick and dying soldiers. He returned to his home in Easton, Pa., sick and exhausted by his hard work, suffering from Typhoid fever contracted in his labors in the hospitals at Washington, D. C. He rallied at one time and preached in Dr. Gray's church, in Easton, only about ten days before his death-and then gradually grew weaker, till the morning of July 5, 1865, when he quietly fell asleep in Christ. He married Miss Lucy Brown, a daughter of Rev. Andrew Brown of Alabama. They had two children. MILO J. HICKOK, D.D., of Scranton, Pa., writes as follows: Our Brother was called, in the Providence of God, to build up the waste places of the Church. For such service he was especially fitted, both by nature and grace. Modest, retiring and inoffensive, he was yet filled with an unquenchable zeal and courage in his Master's work. He was an able preacher, scriptural, instructive and earnest. But his glowing piety was the chief fact and charm about him. We shall not soon forget his fervent prayers and exhortations in the devotional services of the Presbytery; his eminently spiritual mind and conversation in all our ministerial intercourse, and his constant concern for the glory of God, and the good of perishing souls. We have lost a good man, full of faith and the Holy Ghost. The more private attributes of his character, as well as his closing labors, are thus described by an intelligent friend who knew him well. "It is fitting that we should record our grateful sense of that Divine grace which made Mr. Adams a good, faithful and successful minister of the gospel. He felt the power of the 'Kingdom of heaven' within his own heart; and it was his constant effort to bring others to feel and yield to the same constraining force. "It was the Master's pleasure to use him in many fields of labor, and every one bore the marks of his culture, and yielded precious fruit as the seal and result of his usefulness. Mr. Adams was a good man, simple as a child in his faith, and clear as the light in his motives. He was a modest man, never obtruding his criticisms, nor boasting of any learning: (in which, however, he was not deficient,) yet he was ready, when drawn out, to converse freely on controverted points, showing that he had read much and thought independently. His last labors were in the employ of the United States Christian Commission, where he rendered faithful and efficient service: night and day pointing the sick and dying soldier to Christ, the great Physician. Providence led him to this field after he had been persecuted and driven from his last pastorate on account of his standing up nobly for his country in the hour of her trial. "To point sinners to the Saviour was the governing purpose of his life. This was his 'ruling passion,' and it was 'strong in death.' During his last sickness, in the partial delirium of fever, he was still talking to the patients in the hospital, expounding the plan of salvation, and expatiating on the infinite Love of a Saviour. He died, in the midst of his work, with all his armor on, of disease contracted in the service of his country. AMOS, JAMES R.-The son of George and Sarah_Amos was born in Uchland township, Chester Co., Pa., July 31, 1822. He was educated at The Presbyterian High School, Philadelphia, Pa. This institution was under the care of Philadelphia Presbytery. (It is now extinct.) He studied Theology at the Ashmun Institute, Oxford, Chester Co., Pa. Was licensed and ordained by New Castle Presbytery in 1859, and soon after set out for a field of labor in the land of his adoption. He arrived in Africa in 1860, and became pastor of Niffon Presbyterian church, Greenville, Sinou Co., Liberia. He subsequently preached in Harrisburg, Liberia. In both of these places he maintained a good report; he was anxious to become a useful citizen, and few men have shown greater zeal, or more determined perseverance in that direction. Being somewhat delicate in health, he returned to his native land in 1863, and was engaged as Pastor of the First Colored Presbyterian Church in Reading, Pa., where he died of Hectic fever, Nov. 17, 1864. He married Miss Isabella Elliott, who survives him. He had the reputation of being a faithful servant of God. Honest in his dealing, and ever ready to assist the poor and needy to the extent of his ability. The alumni of Ashmun Institute passed a series of Resolutions, among them the following: Resolved, That we will imitate his example by our untiring efforts for the dissemination of religion, literature, and the principles of true morality among our race. Two of his brothers are ministers. One, the Rev. Thomas H. Amos, resides in Liberia. ARMSTRONG, GEORGE B.-The son of John and Jane (Campbell) Armstrong was born in Woodford County, Ky., in 1810. He was educated at (South) Hanover College, Hanover, Indiana, and studied Theology in the South Hanover Seminary, under the late Lewis W. Green, D.D., and Rev. Dr. John Matthews. He was licensed by Madison Presbytery, and ordained by Ebenezer Presbytery in 1842, and commenced his labors in his Master's service in Crittenden, Ky., afterwards in Richmond, and in Lebanon, Ky. In addition to these stated places of preaching, he was a selfdenying, zealous missionary, performing a large amount of labor in the destitute portions of his native state. On the occasion of his death, the session of Lebanon Church (over which he had been pastor for many years) recorded with "gratitude, the energy and fidelity that marked the whole course of his ministrations among this people, thus fulfilling the injunction of the apostle: 'Be instant in season and out of season.' He was a burning and shining light. He died at his home near Crittenden, Kenton Co., Ky., May 18, 1865, of heart disease. He married Miss Jane Read Black of Franklin Co., Ky. They had four children, only one of whom survives him, the wife of Rev. J. A. Liggett of Rahway, N. J. REV. J. M. WORRALL of Covington, Ky., writes of him: "He was one, of the most laborious and devoted men I ever met. With a moderate education, and no great advantages of culture or genius, he endeared_himself to a wide-spread population through three or four Counties, and accomplished much good. BAILEY, WINTHROP--The son of Asa and Emma (Sawyer) Bailey was born in Berlin, Mass., June 3, 1817. He received a common school education, and entered the Theological Seminary at Princeton, N. J., where he graduated in 1847. He was licensed in the spring of 1847 by, Long Island Presbytery, and in the autumn of the same year he was ordained and installed by the same Presbytery, Pastor of the Presbyterian Church Oyster Bay, Long Island, New York. In 1850 he removed to Middle Island, and became Pastor of that church, and subsequently of Southeast Centre church at Brewster's Station, N. Y., at which place he labored for some years, until declining health caused him to relinquish preaching. He died, April 30, 1865, of consumption. He was married twice; first to Miss Catharine L. Voorhees of Rock's Hill. N. J.. April 5, 1848; second, Miss Isabella M. Wynkoop of Trenton, N. J., Feb. 21, 1855, who, with four children, survives him. REV. SAURIN E. LANE of Carmel, New York, writes of him as follows: "Mr. Bailey, as a man, was calculated to wield quite an influence in his sphere. He was a man of clear head and had a kind heart. His Presby |
