September 1884 - Next is the resolution in memory of James Boswell: In memory of our beloved Brother and Deacon - James Boswell.
Whereas: God in His infinite wisdom has seen fit to remove by death from our midst our beloved brother and deacon, James Boswell; Therefore be resolved while we the members of Salem Baptist Church mourn his loss, do not mourn as for one who has gone without Hope, feeling confident that our loss is his eternal gain. Brother James Boswell was in his fifth-fourth year, having been born in the year 1831. He joined the Baptist Church in early life and lived the greater portion of his life a consistent member of Salem Church. Brother Boswell was a devoted christian, followed closely the footsteps of our Lord and Master. Brother Boswell was on account of his exemplary work, ordained a deacon of Mt. Gilead Church in October, A. D. 1872, he being at that time a member of that church. Brother Boswell was above reproach as a citizen and always loving and kind as a husband always ready to administer to the wants of his beloved wife. As a father he was kind, affectionate and indulgent.
Resolved: that the church at Salem readily sympathizes with the bereaved family and pray God's blessing upon them.
Resolved: that a page of the church be devoted to his memory and a copy of this resolution be sent to the widow of our deceased brother and a copy be sent to the Southern Baptist with a request that same be published.
