SALE.-Died In this city, October 8, 1870
CHARLES W. SALE, SON Of Captain W: W. Sale
aged 81 years, Z months and "a days.
Mysterious are thy ways, oh GodI Yet, tshall
the clay say unto Him who fashioned 1t, what
doest thouf''
The untlmely death OF this dear young frieno
has created in our hearts void deep and terrible;
yet sorrow we not as those without nope" for
Ills life evinced that he had lain up "hls treasure
In heaven" and therefore, experience the blessed
consolation OF believing that, freed lrom the dross
Of corruption and sin, he now "sleeps In Jesus"
Need more be said! Still we can truly add, his
disposition was mild and conctliatory; his deport.
ment modest, courteous and consistent; and that
the beautiful Impress Of sincerity and run
stamped all his professions OF love, friendship and
esteem.
Deprived at an early age OF the sweet counsels
and watchful care VI q tender mother, he was lett
the only child Of an ido,izing aud devoted 1atler
to whom he was ever an affectlonate and dutlul
son; and TO this Dereaved and grief-strteken pa.
rent while mingIng our tears with his, we would
gently whisper, "Peace, be still l'' your darling"
Is safely housed; and though che cannot come to
you you oIn 90 10 him." You can meet again,
no more to part.
On Jesus sfean, who not In vain,
Experienced every human pain;
He feels your grlefs, he sees your fears,
And counts and treasures up your tears.h
