Camden; in 1828, to Tallahassee, Florida; in 1820, to Charleston; 

 in 1830, to Columbia; in 1831, to Fayetteville ; in 1832, again to 

 Columbia; in 1833, to Rocky River; and in 1834, to Yorkville. 

 His strength failed him utterly in the month of August, and he left 

 his circuit for Columbia, where he died November 27, 1834. In all 

 his appointments he sustained himself as a godly and useful minis- 

 ter. Patient and resigned in his last sickness, he often said, "All is 

 well." "Mark the perfect man and behold the upright, for the end 

 of that man is peace." 



Forster, Alexius Madoe was born in Brunswick county, North 

 Carolina, November 19, 1787; born again in 1808; licensed to 

 preach in June, 1809, and admitted on trial in the South Carolina 

 Conference in 1837. He was twenty-eight years a local preacher 

 and teacher, and thirty-two years a traveling preacher, of which 

 seventeen were spent in active service, and fifteen in a superannu- 

 ated relation. He died October 28, 1868, and was buried at Andrew 

 Chapel in Abbeville District, South Carolina. As a preacher, his 

 style was plain and without ornament, but always exhibiting a clear 

 and strong common-sense view of his subject ; he had the rare qual- 

 ity of brevity in his pulpit efforts, but was instructive and edifying, 

 terse and pithy. He belonged to the old school of Methodist preach- 

 ers in every thing — manners, dress, simplicity — and thus became an 

 interesting link between the past and present generation of preach- 

 ers. The end of a life so long and faithfully spent for the Church 

 could not well be otherwise than gentle, peaceful, and tranquil. 

 " Them that honor me I will honor."

 ily in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. He died in peace, 

 October 7, 1828, and was buried at Conway boro, South Carolina.
