In Memory of my Dear Friend Mrs.
Millte Massey.

The "AnRel of Summons" came in the chan
Qing of morning to evening and laid upon her
brow the eignet of Peace, and the pure spirit
was borne upon the wings Of the departed
morning. The simplest tribute that affection
can offer, would seem praise exaggerated, save
TO the friends who knew her best who lived in
the sunshine of her bright spirit and hold her
many virtues in bright remembrance. Richly
endowed by nature, qualified by intellectual
attsinments through her native energy of pur
pose, her purity of character, her amiable and
sffectiOnste disposition, she welded graceful
influence over the social atmosphere around
her None ever had fairer promise of a life
of usefulness and happiness. She who loved
all loneliness with her winning sweetness, has
gone 10 the shsde and silence of the tomb, but
her name and memory are enshrined in the
hearts Of those she loved. With the loss Of
one 80 truly valued, tender, solemn hush fell
upon every household. In each was the con-
scious presence of the mysterious power which
comes with sudden interruption TO loosen the
silver chord and give our beloved sleep" Be
resved ones, upon whose hearts the shadow of
the cross falls deeply. look above the desolation
that surrounds you. Faith can lift the sinking
soul 10 heights of sublime exsltation. The
family circle il broken here upon earth. but q
consecrated intelligence. released from the
earthly heritage Of sin, sorrow and suffering,
purified and redeemed through death, in peace
and 10Y awaits its completion in eternal union,
In triumph your household angel passed be-
yond mortal vision, over a radiant path into
life everlasting. May your hearts discern the
the light. MRS. A. Is. II.
