Two PIcrUREs.-Only few months ago
ono Of the finest residences on Camp street
Was the scene Of Q joyful event. A young
and lovely lady, accomplished and a. kind
- human heart can be made, was greatly
admired by all who saw or knew her.
From her infancy che was q petted child,
and ell her existence was az brilliant az
that of q careless butterfly, though che was
not ss useless. Her religious and loving
disposition endeared her to all. The event
was that of the lady's marriage to the gen.
tleman of her choice. Mother, sisters.
brothers and friends. each Joyous over her
happiness. admired and congratulated the
lady. Only few dear friends were permit.
ted to witness the ceremony, and immedi-
ately after the silken knot was tied the
couple left home for short excursion.
Before they returned the bride began to
decline, her health changing from perfec-
ton to complaint. The loving husband,
seeing that his wife grew worse day after
day, concluded to return homo. Disease
had taken strong hold and medical skill
availed nothing. Anxious relatives and
friends mOurned for the loved one, and they
could not restore that blirhe spirit.
Week alter week she fingered. gradually
wasting away, and her radiance vanished.
Lovely features became pinched, and the
enchanting eyee changed to q dull glare.
Death stslked in and claimed her as his own.
Only few days ago the home that had
been so supremely happy with bridal
wreaths. and presente, and heartfelt con-
gratulations, was changed from pure white
to the pail of mourning. Many of the
friends who had witnessed the marriage
ceremony were called in to mourn for the
loved lost one. They followed her to the
tomb and with moist eyes dimly saw the
Last of one whom they had 80 dearly
cherished in life.
