86 d'd not complain of feeling any worse than 2331.1 About midnight he awoke and complained h' wife of feeling badly and asked her to give to is I , . him some medicine. 'He continued to grow weaker d medical aid was summoned, but it was of no Zgail and he died about one o'clock Sunday morn- h d' ing. The cause of death was eart isease. . u The following sketch 1S from the Ciwfzsizaoz fntellzlgemeof. Dr. Stryker was the son of Rev. Herman B. Stryker and was born at Fairfield, N. I., April 8, 1826. He graduated from Rutgers College in, 1845 and from the. New Brunswick Semin- ary in 1848, and served continuously 1n the pastorate, passing 'h t intermission from one charge to another for nearly t fifty-lliivo years. The succession of charges were in the Re- formed. Church : the Third Raritan, N. I. ', Rhinebeok, N. Y. , Broome Street and Thirty-fourth Street, New York City , then for twenty-one years in the Presbyterian Church, in North Broad Street, Philadelphia, First Rome, N. Y. , First Sara- N Y and Andrew Presbyterian, Minneapolis, toga Springs, . ., u Minn. Returning to the Reformed Church in 1889, he for six years served the church he had built, the Thirty-fourth Street, of this city, and thence in 1896 went to the church by the sea, in whose pastorate he died. Wherever he served he accomplished memorable results. Blessed with health, in fifty years he was kept out of his pulpit only four Sundays by illness, genial and winning in his per- sonality, faithful and Scriptural in his preaching, a pastor with unusual tact, ever watching for souls, he, in all the churches he served was continually adding to the membership, receiving in the half century over zzoo persons, more than half of whom were by confession of their faith. This average of over forty per year, or twenty per year on confession, is a very excep- tional record. More than this, Dr. Stryker was a leader of his people, inciting them to worthy undertakings, and in conse- quence left in nearly every one of his charges some material improvement, a monument to his inspiring energy. It seems most fitting that in his last charge-that of Asbury Park-be- fore going hence he should have been permitted to see practi- cally completed the new chapel which adds so much to. the comfort and commodiousness of the church. . Yltality, alertness, whole-hearted consecration were charac- ter1st1c traits, and Dr. Stryker never grew old, for him there was no 'dead 1ine,' until the call came from the Master, Come up h1gher.' He possessed an unusual combination of g1fts'and they served to win, for him the love and confidence of his brother ministers and of his people, to make his pastor- fonalll ,tes excel?-lie d in Igfgsglejan 1 lie Moderator' ' . 5 . l'iiiiestrrk?'
