Daniels – Mr. Benjamin Daniels died at his home in Paradise, Sunday night, March 19th, in his 75th year. He suffered for a long time but his last sickness was very short. He suffered great pain yet was patient through it all and was ready and willing to depart and be with his Saviour, whom he had learned to love and trust. Like many of the early Christians the Bible and Pilgrim's Progress were the books in which he delighted most. He lived an exemplary life and was highly respected. A neighbour said, "Mr Daniels did not have an enemy." He enjoyed much the ministry of Rev. Willard Parker, and was a regular attendant at Valley West. He never made a public profession of religion yet gave evidence of his hope in the redeeming work of Jesus. His funeral, which was largely attended, was conducted by Rev. E.S. Steeves and Rev. Mr. Astbury. Mr. Steeves spoke from Job 5: 26. Thou shalt come to the grave in a full age like as a shock of corn cometh in his season. His widow and seven children mourn the loss of a kind husband and an affectionate father. "The memory of the just is blessed."
