Years, and gave moro than ordinary
promise Of 1 happy and useful life: A

I'd her from the happy circle OF misses
10 which she belonged, az go soon 70
be the victim of disease and death, but
HE who does all things In wisdom and
love, had need of her In the happier
circle Of kindred above, and 90 she
WAS mysteriOusly called away. 1t Ia
pheasant and comforting to recall her
! bmiable qualities of mind and heart,
hnd especially 10 recall with what sin
cerity and decision, she gave her young
heart to the Lord few months ago,
contessing Him publicly in the church
Relations, and with fidelity and con-
scientiousness she had since endeavored
Ito follow in the footsteps Of the Mas
ter. Her funeral was attended by a
large circle of sorrowing relatives and
Friends. Choice flowers were laid
within and upon her casket and strewn
upon her grave, tenderly expressing
the affection of schoOlmates and 9th
ers. May God comfort the afflicted
family. s.L.B.
