The consistent life and peaceful
death
of the humble, sincere Christian afford a striking illustration of the
power and sufficiency of Divine grace as manifested through our Lord
Jesus
Christ. This truth we have seen strikingly displayed in the
subject
of this notice. Thomas J. BERRY (BEIRY?) was born in Bourbon Co.,
Ky., on the 12th day of September 1816. In his 21st year he moved
to Winchester. While a resident of that place he made a public
profession
of religion, and united himself to the Christian Church. His
life,
after taking upon himself the vow of dedication to the service to his
Savior,
gave evidence at once conclusive that a work of grace had been wrought
upon his heart, and that God had sealed him as one of his
people.
Morning and evening the incense of praise thanksgiving and
earnest
supplication ascended on high, from the alter he had erected in his
house.
His fidelity did not go without a reward. While walking humbly
before
his Maker, serving him in singleness of heart, grace was regulating his
spirit and instilling patient submission to the will of his maker, even
in times of deep affliction and painful bereavement. Such was the
tenor of his life and therefore it was not strange that when called to
face his last enemy, for him death had no terrors. From
Winchester
he removed to Ashland, in Boyd Co., where he practiced law and was
elected
Police Judge, enjoying the respect and confidence of all who knew
him.
While living at Ashland, he felt it to be his duty to change his Church
relations, and accordingly connected himself with the Methodist Church,
and, until detained by sickness from enjoying the privileges of the
sanctuary,
was always found at his post, doing his duty as a “soldier of the
cross”.
When he came to Morganfield, about two years ago, he was suffering from
the Fistuia* and from a bronchial affection. These combined and
distressing
diseases undermined his constitution, and terminated his mortal
existence
in his 54th year. Amid all his suffering no murmuring word was
heard
to escape his lips.**
