COLEMAN. -Rev. John Morgan Coleman, son of Robert and Sallie Coleman, was born Jan. 23, 1833, married Sept. 19, 1859 to Nancy Parker, professed religion and joined the M. E. Church, South, in early manhood and licensed to preach just after the Civil war. He was born in South Carolina, and move to Alabama in early youth, where he lived till May 23d 1906, when God called him up higher. He leaves a wife, two daughters and five sons. He said before he died he was ready at God's call to go. Bro. Coleman was well known by the writer who knew him to be a master mason in good standing, a local Elder in the M. E. Church, South, and an earnest worker in his Master's cause.

Servant of God, well done!
Thy glorious warfare's past;
The battle's fought, the race is won,
And thou art crowned at last.
Of all thy heart's desire,
Triumphantly possessed;
Lodged by the ministerial choir
In thy Redeemer's breast.
Jno. W. White
