MEMORIAL SERVICKS. | THE CITIZENS HONOR THE MEMORY OF THEIR FRIEND—DISTINGUISHED CITIZENS PRESENT— ELOQUENT ADDRESSES, &C. Memorial services, in honor to the late Rev. Jno. W. Chickering, D. D., were held on last Sabbath, Feb. 17th, at the Fourth Baptist Church, 12th and BR sts. n. w., at 3 p.m. under the auspices of the Chickering Memorial Society. The service began by singing hymn, ‘Why should we start and fear to die,” worded by Rev. S. J. R. Nelson, after which Dr. E. M. Gal- laudet read the XIII Chap. Ist. Cor., and followed in an ardent sympathetic prayer. The choir then sang ‘‘Jesus lover of my soul.” Rev. Dr. Robt. Johnson was then introduced, as the eulogist, Dr. Johnson began by reading a notice of the death of Dr. Chickering clipped from a paper ; he then very amiably quoted the life and char- acter of Dr. Chickering since he entered the ministry. He said that Dr. Chickering was an universal christian who believed that it took the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost to regenerate the black and red man as well as the white; he said that Dr. Chickering was one of those christians which the color- ed people seldom meet, for he did not look upon the color of man but upon the principle and character, and when he extended his hand to an individual his heart did not, like a good many of his white breth- ren, remain in the trunk(body) but went out into the fingers ; he closed his remarks by telling of his per- sonal knowledge of Dr. Chickering, how fervently he preached for him on several occasions and that he had came in contact with him at various places but always tound him to be the same Dr. Chickering. Dr. E. M. Gallaudet, president of the Deaf and Dumb Institution, was requested to say something. The Doctor said he would only add a few remarks to what had been said; that he thought the Rev. Johnson had very ably and truly spoken of the character of this venerableman; that he had known Dr. Chickering for a number of years, making his winter resi- dence at Kendall Green with his son, a valuable colaborer of his in educating the deaf and the dumb, going back inthe summer to the old homestead in New Eagland; that it is true that Dr. Chickering was a man that whenever he ex- tended the hand the heart accom- panied it. He said he thought that the Society not only do honor to this venerable good man and the bereaved family in commemorat- ing his death, but to themselves and the community at large as Dr. Chickering was aman that spent his time and meansin doing good wherever it was needed. Heclosed his remarks by saying that he knew of no person whose christian | character is more worthy of immi- tation than that of Dr. Chickering. The following resolations, which had been adopted by the society, were read by Rav. Nelson: ‘We, the members of this society, believing that an expression of gratitude to our benefactors is a du- ty which the Great Ruler and Bene- faetor of all has devolved upon us, and apon all mankind, and that in the late Rev. Dr. Chickering, the colored people of this country and especially of this city bad a true and tried friend at §all times and under all circumstauces We desire to give some expression of our gratitude and sincere devotion to this our benefactor and friend. But we feel that we cannot better express our feelings of gratitude than by the adoption of these reso- lutions : WHEREAS, As the Rev. Jno. W. Chickering was a true friend of the colored people and to the oppress- ed, regardless of race, a true Christ- ian philanthropist recognizing the universal brotherhood of mankind, and WHEREAS, He was a zealous ad- vocate of equal rights and equal justice tor the colored people both in Church and State; and almighty Father and disposes of all destinies, to smite us with the rod of this bereavement by taking the Rev. Dr. Jno. W. Chickering from his labors of love among us to his reward of a blisstul immor- rar beyond the skies. Therefore e it RESOLVED Taat, while we bow with reverence to the Divine Will we feel with the relatives and friends of the deceased the pains of a sad bereavement and will ever cherish with fond recollections the sacred memory of our departed friend. And Resotvep That while we hold with sacred veneration the memory of this great man, we will teach our children to cherish his memory, and emulate his virtues by handing them down from generation to gen- eration. And RESOLVED That a copy of these resolutions be submitted to the family of the deceased. Adopted by the Chickering Me morial Society. Rev. S.J.R. Nel- son, president; Wm. H. Lucas, V. president; D. J. Edwards, secreta- ry. : Among the audience present were Profs. Samuel Porter, J. Gor- dan and wife, J. Hochkiss, J. W: Chickering and family, Mesdames A. Draper, J.B. B. Wright, and Misses M. Gordan and A. Gordan. te OBITUARY. The funeral of Miss Eliza M. Reed took place at 2 o’clock Friday Feb. 22nd, from the family resi- dence in Baltimore, Md., and was well attended by the members of the Venus Assembly and Venus L’ Aide of this city. The remains were incased in a white covered casket, with silver ornaments and bars. A plate of the same metal bore her name, age and death. The floral offerings were rich and beau- tiful and were numerous. A hand- some pillow with the name Eliza was the gift ef her cousin, Mamie Hawkins, of Balt. A broken col- umn and a buneh of lilies was the gift ofthe Venus Assembly and L’Aide. Two anchors, a cross, a wreath, ssheaf of wheat and a bunch of lilies were the gifts of lov- ing and sorrowing friends. The impressive features of the deceased wore a calm, peaceful expression, more suggestive of sleep than of death. A short prayer was read by the minister of the St. Mary’s Episcopal church, the casket was then closed apd the body was borne to the hearse by the following members of the Venus Assembly: J. Richard Tunia, Charlie E. Jones, James Rollins, L. Milton Collins, J. Madison Clay and Engene Turn- er of the Wed. Club; jr., of Balt. Next followed the members of the L’Aide, each carrying an emblem of flowers. The members present were as follows: Cordelia Madison, Eula Ross, Minnie Matthews, Ma- mie Price, Eva Ross, Carrie Nalle, Alice Collins, Ida Mason. The fan- eral then proceeded to the church, and after the services were con- cluded, the body was borne to the Laurel Cemetery, were it was plac- ed in the vault shutting out from the view of all that remained of a valued friend and member. The members of the L’Aide and Assembly sent a letter of condo- lence to Mrs. Reed, expressing their heartfelt sympathy for the loss of one with whom, as a friend and member they had been so long associated. She was also a member of the St. Mary’s Episco- pal church of this city and died very happy expressing a wish that her many friends would meet her in heaven. AMUSEMENTS. Inaugural Night!
