Died March 1lth, 1878, Magaret
Baker, consort of B. D. II. Baker, was
born in Kentucky, Oct. 10Th, 1920,
and was converted to God, and uni
ted with the Methodist +. Church,
August, 1887, in which she lived
devoted member until she was called
to tho Church triumphant
She was married to her now be-
reaved husband, December 18th, 1916.
For more than thirty-two years they
travelled life's path together, sharing
life's joys, and mutually bearing its
burdens. Sister Baker possessed a
meek and quiet spirit, which. in the
sight of God is of great price. She
loved the church most dearly, and
until the time of losing her health,
she was an efficient and constant
worker in it.
Her home for many years was the
resting place for the ministers of the
Lord Jesus Christ and many who
have, in years past. enjoyed the hos
FATALITIES of that Christian home, will
remember the cordial hand shake,
and hearty welcome that always
greeted them as they stood upon the
threshold of that ever open door,
Her picty was unaffected, neverthe-
less, it was unquestioned. She was
truly an epistlc known and read of
all, and when the Master comes to
make up his jewels none doubt but
that Margaret Baker will be among
them.
She retained her power of speech
to within very short period before
she died, and assured us that she was
resting swcetly in the arms of Jesus,
and was entirely resigned TO the will
of God.
Sister Baker has been a great sui.
ferer for many years, but she endured
it patiently and without complaining,
for she knew that the suf,erings OF
this present time were not worthy to
be compared with the glory that shall
be revealed in us. She leaves with
her companion five children to mourn
hel loss, but thank God they are not
left to mourn as some without hope
for all know that their loss is hel
gain. May our Heavenly Father In
tender compassion, bind the stricken
ones to his great, loving heart and
enable them to say 1.-THE Lord gave
and the Lord hath taken away, Bless
ed be the name of the Lord"
"Oh how sweet it will be in that beautiful land.
| So free from all sorrow and pain!
With song, on our lips and with harps in on
4 hands
To meet one another again."

Terrible Death.

One Of the most shocking deaths
we have heard of for some time OCT
Cured at Eldon, yesterday evening.
1t seems that two little boys, sons Of
John Donaghue, section boss on the
X. & d. M. railroad, were playing on
a shed roof over some sort of an out
building and little Johnny, aged
about five years, when near the top
Of the roof stepped through a hole
caused by the boards spreading apart
at the end leaving an aperture some
thing in the shape of a capital "V."
His chin and the back Of his head
caught against the plank and there
the little fellow hung, his feet only a
few inches from the ground, every
effort of the child only making his
death more certain. No person ex-
cept the baby brother, only abou,
three years old, saw the death strug.
gle, and nothing was known of the
disaster until the mother missed her
child and found him dead in the posi-
ton above described, about thirty
minutes after he left the house.
The child was particularly bright
little fellow, and his sad end created
great sorrow in the town where he
was born. The body was brought to
this city for burial, to-day noon.
