SHERBRO MISSION.

in the work in hand that he almost forgot himself. 
The zeal of the Lord’s house literally eat him up. 
Yielding to necessity, after two and a half years 
' of labor in Africa, Mr. Hadley and his wife 
returned to America. He had now become en- 
tirely unable to labor any more, and Mrs. Hadley 
could do little more than take care of her hus- 
band. Finally they committed the mission to Mr. 
Williams, under God, and sailed for America. 
They arrived in Dayton, Ohio, April 15, 1869. 
Mr. Hadley was in a dying condition. He could 
say very little about the mission or anything else. 
In a short time they proceeded to their home near 
Lafayette, Indiana, and in a few days after he 
died.
