PIERSON: In Oneida [Madison Co. NY] July 14, of consumption, Wm. Pierson only remaining brother of Mrs. S.M. Howes and Miss M.L. Pierson, Late of Canasaraga [Allegany Co. NY], aged 33(?) years.
His ancestors were among the earliest, wealthiest and most influential citizens of Canasaraga, where his remains now lie beside theirs in the large family cemetery. Wm. Pierson possessed by nature a strong constitution and a good mind. Three years of his most vigorous life was spent in the service of his country during the recent war. Just previous to his going to war he experienced religion, but while absent in the war, like too many unfortunates, he was led into habits which undermined his health and brought him to a premature grave. During the hours of retired meditation which his last sickness afforded, but before he was confined to his room, and while yet he seemed confident of life, he saw the folly of his course, lamented his condition, bitterly repented of his sins, sought pardon and forgiveness in the Lord Jesus, after earnest struggles in prayer and the study of the Bible, satisfactory evidence of his reconciliation with God. For two weeks before his death he said all was dear in his future through the Lord Jesus, that it was his delight not only to pray himself, but to have others pray with him. It became his daily practice to have selected such passages of scripture as seemed most appropriate to his case, especially the confessional and promissory Psalms. He expressed a desire, if it were the will of God to live, that he might devote some years to his Savior's cause. When it became apparent to him, three hours before his end, that his life on earth must soon cease, he calmly resigned his interests to the will of God, entrusted his friends as he bade them farewell, to be faithful in their Christian lives, called upon his pastor to pray, and patiently waited the silent approach of death, which, without a struggle, he welcomed. The funeral was held the following Sabbath and a sermon preached by Rev. C.N. Stowers, in the Canasaraga M.E. Chruch. May the blessed Savior comfort and sustain the often bereaved sisters, and guide them to our father's house on high.
