Oglevee, formerly pastor of the Presbyterian church of this city, now in charge of a pastorate at Stroud, O.T. arrived in the city this morning in answer to a telephone message from Mr. Isaac Shields, informing him of the death of his wife and a wish that he take charge of the funeral services. Mr. and Mrs. Shields were earnest members of Rev. Oglevee’s church during his pastorate of over six years in this city, and the christian love existing between pastor and member only grew stronger as the years passed by, and no wonder that the last request of this saintly woman should be that her old pastor come to comfort her loved ones as her spirit, freed from earthly fetters, winged its way through space to the Father’s house where all was in waiting for the redeemed soul.
