F. Speake was stricken with heart failure yesterday morning and passed away. He died at his post, in the performance of the duty which he commenced nearly a half century ago. The congregation of the Fourth Street Meth- odist Episcopal Chureh, of which Mr. Speake was pastor, assembled as usual yesterday morn- ing for the 11 o'clock Sunday service. When the time arrived for the service to commence the pastor had not appeared. A few winutes passed without his arrival and then Mr. Rich- ard Emmons opened the service. While he waa yet at the beginning of a chapter of Scripture Mr. Geo. W. Cook hurriedly approached the pulpit and whispered a few words to the eacher. ‘The congregation seemed to feel that something was amiss, and in the midst of a silence almost painful Mr. Emmons turned to the assembled people and ina voice tremulous with emotion announced, “Your pastor 18 cou” ‘Then an affeeting scene occurred. Men and women were seen to weep and on every side were heard demonstrations of sincere grief. The service was discontinued. In the meantime a still more painfal scene had been enacted in the parsonage, where the aged pastor. surrounded by his family. had within a few minntes, from apparent health, passed into unconsciousness and death. At 10:50 o'clock, while addressing the Sunday school, Mr. Speake was noticed to falter and bring the exercises to a sudden termination. As he turned away from the plattorm and walked out into the vestibule he complained to Mr. Cook of fecling ill. He was attacked with a violent coughing fit, and when his daughter came in she saw that her father was a very sick man. Mr. Speake was assisted into the parsonage next door, where he made a request for a doctor, the last words which he spoke, and then lapsed into unconsciousness, He died at 11:20 o'clock. Mr. Speake had been in an enfeebled condi- tion for severe years, but his trouble was at- tributed to rheumatism. He was sixty years old and leaves a wife, two sons and three daugh- Howard K. Speake and Sum- , are engaged in_ business in Baltimore, while two daughters, Mrs. Daniel Hoffman and Mrs, Samuel Dorman, live in that city. Mr. Speake was assigned to the pastorate of the Fourth Street Church by the conference of last March, and entered upon his duties at once, succeeding Rev, W. M. Ferguson, During his ministry of forty-three years Mr. Speake worked for eleven years in Virginia, seven years in Washington and the remainder of his vervice was in Baltimore. For six years past he had filled the prominent position of pre- siding elder of the East Baltimore eonference with marked ability. Mr. Speake was a rese delegate to the general conference in 1876, a: a delegate from Baltimore to the general con- ference in 1888. > FORMALLY DEDICATED.
