DIED AT the residence of her father,
Christian AmeIung, in Pilot Knob, Mo-, on
Monday, November 10Th, 1886, LOUISA AME-
LUNG, aged 16 years and I months.
Miss Amelung was some of ten thousand"
Amiable, intelligent, and gifted with all the
graces of early womanhood, she was be-
loved of all. To her parents she was the
bright particular star which gave to earth
its nearest approach to heaven, and they
will mourn her departure for time with
the blackness of despair; but it is hoped
that with the passing days will come the
reflection that she has only gone before, to
lovingly greet them Oh their approach to
that other shore whittier we all are bound.
She was fair amongst the fairest,
With a heart so kind and true,
And the brightest smile and rarest,
As diamond kissed with dew.
Radiant with grace and beauty,
+ With sweet heaven in her soft eyes,
Like a prayer of love and duty
She's assembled to the skies.
