5obn m. ZvMc, JOHN M. TRIBLE was born near Diinnsville, Virginia, August i8th, 1851. He was educated mainly in Dunns- ville Academy and Bethany College. He entered Bethany College in 1873, and graduated in June, 1875. In November of the same year he took charge of th e Church at Norfolk, Virginia. He remained there until September, 1877, when he moved to Franklin, Tennessee. From Franklin he went to Memphis, Tennessee, in January, 1879. In August, 1882, he accepted the pastorate of the Church in Bufifalo, New York, succeeding G. L. Wharton, who went as a missionary to India. He remained there until January, 1887, when he went to St. Louis to take the position of office editor of the Christian Evangelist. While there he also occupied the pulpit of tlie Central Church. In February, 1888, he was called back to the pastorate of the Bufifalo Church, and remained there until he accepted the Professorship of New Testament Theology in Bethany College in September, 1889, and was also made Vice President of the institution. On the resignation of President McLean, he was chosen to act as Chairman of the Faculty and President, pro tempore. He was married June 24th, 1879, ' o Miss Susie Campbell, dauglliter of William P. a nd Susan Campbell, of Franklin, Tennessee. Four children — two boys and two girls — have blessed this union. He attributed chief credit for whatever he was able to accomplish, to his estimable wife. While still a young man. Professor Trible died at Bethany, September 25th, 1889. His death awakened profound sorrow throughout the brotherhood. Every person who knew him had come to love him for his beautiful character, and to trust him because of his wisdorn. His sun has gone down ere it is yet noon. His life had great promises of usefulness. But God knows, and let us not doubt He has use for such spirits in the higher activities of the spiritual realm. His wish that he might go to heaven from old Bethany was fulfilled, but, alas! how much sooner than he or we anticipated. 13
