A day in June was set many months ago "marri.
age ring" to wear Very soon stranger came with
ever darkening shadows the young maiden's path
way following. Two weeks ago, hopeful yet too
feeble to stand alone, on her couch reclining the
wedding ring placed upon her finger. The
words of the preacher "Unti death do part"
deeper meaning had to all, save her. Two short
weeks of welded life; dream only Of human
bliss. She recognized not, gentle was the touch
at last of deaths angel Falling asleep she awoke
amidst the "White ROBBED" on the other shore On
Sunday last casket beside the Silver lake was
laid. Encircled with exquisite flowers, fresh cut
upon its lid we saw silver plate, bearing this in
scrption: Mrs. Susie W. Leach, died July 3, 1884.
