on October 23, 1887, and his father following on July 31, 1939.
On September 24 , 1902, Harvey was married to Edith Sayles, to which
was added to this happy union a son, Irvin Earl of Cleveland, Ohio, and
a daughter, Dorothy Marguarette who has remained at home with her parents.
In 1905, at the age of 23, Harvey accepted thP- call from his Lord
to preach the unsearchable riches of Christ to a lost world.

Answering

Un i ted Brethern Church to serve as an evangelist at large.

Harvey was an untiring servant of the Lord, never failing when
possible to lead one more soul to the Lord.

During his ministry thou-

sands of souls that were brought to the Lord will join him some day at
the feet of Jesu s.
As a hu sband and fath er, h e was revered, respected and loved as a
son of God giving his life and his best for his f amily.
