August Goth, 1877, at 6:2U A. NJ, LAURA C.
BREs.
Dead! dead and the voice of loving,
devoted mother was borne out on the
morning breeze i'll a heart-rending wall of
agony. Dead! and the tears that filled the
eyes of "LoLLIE's'' friends told OF the
hearts sorrow and broken links of the
golden chain OF friendship.
LAURA, second daughter of Charles and
Cynthia Bres, was born in 1867 III Caldwell
parish, La. Removing to this city at
early age, she gave us the opportunity of
knowing her well, an opportunity that we,
with all her many friends, have never
ceased to congratul late ourselves for.
We have watched her as she threw aside
the character of happy, blithesone girl
hood and put on that of woman's kingdom,
which she dignilied and ennobIed. Watched
her, esteemed her ana praised her. for her
life was without blemisll, her faults were
none. Her character, her example, her life,
is one to be protitably followed by all her
friends. "A sunbeam in the household of
hor parents, LOLI.IE was II bright, spark
ling gem in society, which she -ornamented
70 degree seldom accorded one SO young
in years. But she is gone. with all her
brightness, all her goodness, all her sweet
ness, to Il better fan.t. She has left the
garden OF fair flowers among whom she
bloomed so radiantly and purely here on
earth and has taken her abode among the
stainless lilies of the celestial realm, at
peace with men, at peace with her God.
To the bereaved family we offer the full
est sympathy of "A heart that highly es-
teemed their LAURA. And though the I'M
sparing hand of Death has crossed their
lives and darken their household, tbs but
for the purpose OF Frightening that OF her
other parents above.
LoLLIE is not dead but sleepeth and
though she be gone from our sight,
shell be often, often with us
When we link she's far away
We consoied by feeling that this
loved daughter, sister and friend is at
home, at rest among the angels of Heaven.
Sanctus, sanctus, cried the angelss
Sanctus. sang man of God;
And the gates of Heaven opened
To admit her to reward.
