OBITUARY

Brethren L. & S. Died at his residence in Hopkins County Texas, on the 24th of September, 1870, our dearly beloved Bro. Dr. Elijah R. Hooten.

Brother Hooten was born July 29, 1817 in Bedford Co., Tenn., being 53 years old. He obeyed the Gospel in early youth, and emigrated to Texas in the Fall of 1846. Settled in the wilderness portion of the county near where his body now lies. When he arrived in Texas he was without means. A settlement was soon made and a house of worship reared, the oldest congregation of Desciples in this portion of the county, of which he was principal Elder met in it. Though poor in this world's goods, yet rich in faith, he was never known to despond. He was always cheerful-pressing onward, comforting the disconso!ate, strengthening the weak, and confirming the strong, persuading the sinner, and encouraging the Christian. The Bible was his theme by his fireside, in the stand, and while administering to the afflicted, every word was seasoned with love; so much was he engaged in the work of love, that those who differed from him religiously or medically, were often heard to say that he was the best Christian that they ever knew.

While others thought him faultless, he felt his weakness and was always ready to confess his faults. He expressed his willingness to meet death. He whispered in my ear "my way is clear; my hope is worth ten thousand worlds like this. I have spent my life trying to be ready to meet my Savior in peace." O! what sweet words to hear from a departing brother!

He leaves behind 10 'loving children and the companion of his latter days, as well as a large congregation of brethren and sisters in the Lord to mourn his loss. As the Scriptures have said, "blessed are they that die in the Lord, for their labors do follow them."

Yours in the one hope,

-J. R. Hooten.
