Mis- Mamie was one Of earth's brightest and best
children Her conduct was remarkable for consisteH-
cy both at home and among strangers, with religious
or irregious. She was bright light wherever she
went As to her love for religion and its ordinances, 1t
needs no comment for past examples have been suff-
cent demonstrations Of the fact. None ever knew her
but love and admire her-none associated with
her but felt they made better by It. Her death
was as calm and serene as summers eve-not cloud
gathered upon her sky. She willing to obey the
messengers call because she ready to go, and
while earth has been darkened to her bereaved friends
and relatives, they must remember that heaven Is
frightened to their upward gaze.
bright be the place Of thy soul!
No lovelier spirit than thine
Fer burst from mortal control
In the orb OF blessed to shine.
Light be the turf on thy tomb
May its verdure like emeralds be;
There should not he shadow Of gloom
