TRIBUTE OF RESPECT

TO THE MEMORY OF LITTLE CALLIE FULLER.
TON, WHO DIED IN THEBEs, ILLINOIS, ON
THE 10Th DAY OF SEPTEMBER, 1879.
The school mates of little Callie, sincerely
lamenting her death, joined in the follow
ing tribute of respect, and forwarded it to
us for publication in THE BULLETIN:
Callie, having been pupil of our Dis
trict School, for the past two years, we, as
school mates, think it proper to pay such
respect to her memory, as her many virtues
richly deserve; therefore,
Resolved, That in the death of Callie.
the school has been bereft of one of its most
energetic and brilliant members,
each pupil Of dear, unselfsh school mate
and the teacher, who for one short term,
was permitted to direct the studies. of an
aitectionate and studious pupil, whom, in
their daily intercourse, she noticed to be
the soul of truth and honor-one who al.
ways strove to obey, not merely from sense
OF duty, but from love of school and
teacher.
Resolved, That together with all friends
of the family, through our little village we
heartily tender our sympathes to the dear
mother who has thus Seen called upon to
give up her last treasure to the care of the
Heavenly Father and may she be COM
forted in the thought, that though
dead to us, she is not lost,
but only gone before" to meet the
dear father and little sister, with when She
Ionged TO be-gone to that heaven of rest
so gIowingy described to us, where there is
no sickness or suffering, and where (our du
ties here on earth ended We all hope 70 as.
semble.
Resolved, That a copy OF these resoiu
tons be sent to the bereaved mother, one
sent THE CAIRO BULLETIN for publication.
and third copy be placed upon the records
OF the school. LILLE LlGHTNER,
