The following resolutions We're unani~
mously adopted by the members of the
Linnaean Literary Society.
WHEREAS, God in his wisdom has tho't
it best to remove to that more congenial
cline of fidelity and Immortality our worthy
friend and highly esteemed member of
society, Miss Lucy G. Gist. Therefore

the hand Of God in this bereavement and
desire to bow with adoring reverence in the
presence Of Him whose way was in the sea
whose path is in the great waters, and
whose footsteps are not known
Resolred, That in her death society has
lost faithful attentive and punctual mem
ber, and since our loss is great we rejoice
that while she is absent from Society she
is present with the Lord.
ReSolred, That we sympathize tenderly
with the family of which she was behaved
inmate and especially with that kind and
gentle sister who accompanied her to school
and may we hear the voice of the Lord
saying: Whatsoever you have to do, do it
quickly
Resolred, That copy of these resou-
tions be published in the Wellsburg Herald,
Pittsburg Christian Atloocate, and in each
of the Harrison County Papers, and that
