One gentleman OF this city had sent his wife
thrcs children and sister ea. tward on the IA raj
night. lie was an early inquirer. The oblig-
ing operator dispatched a message Of INQUIRY
and he stood by the instrument q picture OF
woe, waiting an answer. In reply to ques-
ton, he said that he put his family in the for
ward car He was told TO expect the worst
because ths destruction Of life in that car was
fearful. He trembied like an aspen leaf, and
the sweat Of agony stood like rain drops on
his brow.
In reply to another ques ton, he said that his
wife was going only rs far as Kalamazoo. He
was told that Kalamazoo was on the Michigan
Central, and that his precious ones could not
be involved in this catastrophe ut all The re-
lief came too sudden. The revulsion followed
like waterfall, and the happy and thankful
man threw himself into a chair and wept like
a child rough bearded customer who rela-
ted the incident TO US, says that he also cried
as he witnessed the thrilling scene.
BROKEN HEART.
One woman who was on the train with her
husband and flve children, ran wildly about
all night seeking her family; but without sue
cess, until morning, when she found them oil
dead. She then went to fhrm house q few
yards OF, where, after sitting some minutes,
the wrctched wife aud mother expired.

DEPARTED this life AT my residence, in Cher

Bilious Pneumonia, Mrs. MARY G. GEuRIN, in
the Doth year of hcr.age She was seized very
i'll and painful for eleven days. The deceased
leaves large circle of relatives and friends,
and little infant boy. one year old, and n be-
reaved husband, to mourn her sacred loss. Sho
was very industrious and cconomizing. and an
obcdent child to her parents, and charitable
neighbor, and beloved by all who knew her,
She was an afcctionate wife. and loving moth
er She was not n member of any Christian
church, though she took tho Bible for her
guide. and tried to live in accordance with it,
For the mst several years past her prayers
were often to God, who hath said in His word,
"Lct the wicked forsakc his way and the unright
eous man his thoughts, and let him return unto
the lord. and He will have mercy upon him.
and to our God. for he will abundantly pardon"
Yes, lie pardoned the thief upon the Cross,
and we hope that-he Heard and answered her
prayers, though mourn not for her ms those
who have 10 hope in the future. often talked
with her about her interest in His mercy, and
when she was first taken i'll | asked her how she
felt, aud her prospect Of rest in the future, and
she told me she believed she would go to rest.
| asked her several times during her painful
illness, and she manifested the same. She re-
manned in her proper mind until her death.
She bore her sui1erings with great patience.
She requested to be buried at Schedcom Camp
buried just two years ago. "Thc Lord gave
and the Lord taketh away, and blessed be tho

Why should we mourn departed friends,
Or Shake mt deaths alarm;
'Ts but the voice that Jesus sends
TO call them 10 his arms?
Why should trcmble 10 convey
Their bodies to the tomb.
Where once the flesh of Jesus lay,
And left rich perfume?
Ere sin could blight or sorrow fade,
Death came with timely care,
The opning bud to Heaven conveyed,
And badc it blossom there.
Through the valley of death my feet have
And reign in glory now, [trod,
To my head a crown of gold is given,
And harp is in my haui
Dearest frici.d, thou hast left us,
Here thy loss we deeply feel,
But it's God who hath bcrcrt u.s.
He can all our sorrows heal
Thou no more will Join our number,
Thou no more our songs shall know,
Yet again VIC hope to meet thee,
