Tabler, was called to his rest on Sabbath morning, December 15, 1895, at the home of his son, Dr. J. N. Tabler, at Royse City, Texas. He was in his eighty-fifth year and spent sixty years of his life in the active ministry of the gospel - giving up his last pastorate at Fayetteville, Va., just four years ago. His beautiful life and Christian character will ever remain in rich legacy to his children. He was greatly beloved in all of his fields of labor. He served the Baptist church at Taylorsville, Ky., for many years. (The Sayings Wed Jan 1, 1896) Submitted by Kelly Courtney-Blizzard
