    Obituary:
    ANOTHER WATCHMAN IS FALLEN
    Died, at his residence, in Jackson county, Mississippi, on the 29th of July, Rev. William H. Whittington, in the sixty-sixth year of his age. He was the son of Burwell and Nancy Kenaday Whittington. He was born in Marlborough or Barnwell district, on the 20th August, 1789. When he was about ten years of age, his father removed to the State of Georgia, where the subject of this notice embraced religion and joined the Methodist Episcopal Church, in the fifteenth year of his age, and of which he remained a member to the close of his life. He was licensed to preach in 1813 or 14; was married in 1815; in 1819 he emigrated to this State, where resided until he was called from the service of the church militant, to join the church triumphant in heaven.
    It may be said of him, that he was a man of great afflictions, and as truly so, that he possessed deep and ardent piety. Affliction is the furnace in which men's souls are tried; into it he was cast, in in the midst of it found that the Everlasting arms were underneath him. He endured his sufferings with patience and resignation to the divine will. In his last illness, which was protracted for nearly six months, he constantly manifested the same spirit; and when asked at any time, about his prospects for the future, he replied, "I am ready," and on one occasion said to me, that he had felt for sometime that his work was done, and was now willing to depart and be at rest. He frequently repeated, and at other times asked me to read a part of the 15th chapter of first Corinthians, "for this corruption must put on incorruption," &c. to the fifty-seventh verse. Being necessarily absent, I did not converse with him towards the close of his sickness as much as I desired. I reached home the morning of the same day on which he died. His speech had nearly failed, but when I asked him the state of his mind, he replied "all is right." He seemed inclined to sleep, and as the day declined his drowsiness became greater. He could speak but little intelligibly, he therefore attempted it but seldom. His last words were "Glory to God!" He lingered until fifteen minutes past eight P.M., when he sweetly slept in Jesus, without a struggle or groan.
    "Thus he lived a good citizen, a consistent christian, an affectionate husband, a tender and indulgent father, and as a preacher of the Gospel, sound and practical. -- And thus he died, in full prospect of a blessed immortality. In his death the church has sustained an irreparable loss, and his family a serious bereavement. -- Him we mourn not as those who have no hope; for while we feel and truly regret the loss of our husband, father and common friend, we rejoice to know that it is his eternal gain. Let me die the death of the righteous, and may my last end be like his.
    B.B. Whittington
