Joseph L. Hull was born at Alfred, N. Y., May 12, 1849, and died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Lotta Coon, at Little Genesee, N. Y., August 25, 1935.
He is survived by his daughter, Mrs. Coon; eight grandchildren; and several great-grandchildren.
Funeral services were held at the Little Genesee Seventh Day Baptist church, Tuesday, August 27, 1935. Burial was in the local cemetery. Pastor Harley Sutton officiated.
Rev. Joseph L. Hull, a retired minister, and one who had been a subscriber to the SABBATH RECORDER for seventy years, has been called to his reward by the heavenly Father.
Mr. Hull left New York State when he was about twenty-one years of age and took up a claim in Nebraska. where he lived for several years. He was. married to Almira Hage [Hayne] of Garwin, Iowa, July 27, 1875. To them were born six children, of whom one is now living.
In the winter of 1882-83, he with his family moved from Nebraska to Arkansas. In June, 1883, he and his wife and five others organized a Seventh Day Baptist Church at Point DeLuce, on Grand Prairie, in a log cabin owned by John Matley.
In 1885, Mr. Hull was called to the office of deacon and was also licensed to preach and called to the pastorate of the church. In August, 1888, he was ordained to the gospel ministry.
In 1891, the church was moved to Little Prairie, and Mr. Hull continued to serve the church as pastor. After fifteen years of service in the church as pastor, he resigned in 1900. During these years he did not receive a salary from the church. He taught school for several years and worked at other things. There were trials for this little church and Pastor Hull, but there was always the hand of God leading them through.
His wife died at Little Prairie, in 1900. He moved to Little Genesee, N. Y., in 1901.
He was married to Florence E. Lewis December 26, 1903. She died January 30. 1922. After coming to Little Genesee Mr. Hull joined the church there by letter in 1904, and was a loyal worker there as long as he could attend. He assisted the pastor at the communion service and was a help in other activities of the church.
Mr. Hull was an ardent supporter of the Sabbath truth and preached it whenever there was opportunity. While in Arkansas he faced legal prosecution for working on Sunday. He was one of the pioneers with others who have given us our rich heritage in spiritual things. His life had much of hardship and suffering but he had high ideals for spiritual and denominational life, which we today may well cultivate. His strong faith in God was tested by illness which confined him to his bed for one year before his death, but be came to the end as a brave soldier of the cross. We can pay him no higher tribute than to live out the spiritual truths he lived for during so many years.
