"About one year ago he was taken
III 'and' la' Decern befv Vent to the
St; Hlena Sanitarium for treatment
and in January underwent an opera
tion. The operation afforded tempor
ary relief, but later it was known
that a malignant growth of the pan
creas had developed and that with
i ut divine intervention recovery was -itr
possible. .
"Notwithstanding, Bro. Cooper was
perfectly reconciled. ' The speaker
had frequent conversations with
him' and was assured that he was
ruacy to go at any time. His only
desire for prayer was that the will
f Godi might be done. His one re
;ret was that he had not been, more
active in his Chilstdan life, .and the
last few weeks of. hie life bore
imple testimony to the sincerity of
this regret. He delighted to speak
.0 the many sympathising callers
at the home about the blessed hope
and when, alone hi.9 time was spent
Icrgely In prayer. Certainly he died
!n the enjoyment of a bright hope,
a strong faith, an abounding love, a
deep consecration." '
