On December 92nd, while Mrs. G. c. Law
was walking in her yard, she was stricken
with appopleXy, and although all that skilled
could do, her gentle spirit winged It's flight TO
Him who gave it. Her case Was pronounced
very doubtful from the beginning, but how
often we hope against hope, and even reason /:
When the angel of death was hovcring ovel
her loved form and folding. her close in hi;
icy embrace, what sorrowiEg heart around
that bedside could say, am resigned! While
hcr blameless and consistent Christian life
leave us in no doubt as TO her future, yet who
will say to us, "Sorrow no more?" The shin
ing portals were passed on saturday morning,
Decem Der the Slst. and during the afternoon
of tue same day, In the presence OF number
of friends, the casket which had contained
the jewel was inferred in the Bethlehem
church yard, Of which church she was dc
vuut member. The town has lost one OF us
most beloved daughters, and family lis snld'
ing star. ~
Col. Law and family through the columns
of the Press and Banner, beg 10 extend their
heartfelt thanks and appreciation to theii
friends and nelghbors for their, unlimited
kindness and attention during their recent
severe trial and bereavement. Especially
would they thank the younger members OF
the town for their fond anticipation for Christ
mas enjoyment and. instead, spent their time,
gave their sympathies, and shed their tears
with 81 stricken family. May God bless each.
and when sorrow and death lays blightinH
hand upon their homes, May they have such
Kindness shown them as they have shown to
others. pULCIO.
