Miss Julia Korn. after an illness of
about three weeks. died at the home of
her parents on west McKibben street.

There is no such thing MS death
In nature nothing dies;
From each sad remnant OF decay
Some forms of Life arise.
The leaf that falls
All brown and scar to earth,
Ere long Will mingle with the buds
That gives the flower Its birth.
Her suffering ended with the day
Yet lived she at the close
And breathed long, long night away
In statue-like repose.
But when the.su in all his state,
Tlum'ed the eastern skies,
She passed through gory's morning gate.
And walked in paradise.
