Mr. Stafford was converted early in life and united with the Methodist Church, living a consistent Christian life until he was called from this life to that life beyond the veil. Our brother has gone to that city on high where the communion with our Father is sweeter and the relationship is more intimate. There to await loved ones, to be gathered around a throne of mercy to which we shall all presently come. The relatives will have the sympathy of many friends in the loss of this good man.
