The we Of Rev. Charles Morse
died at West Fairlee, Oct. 18th, after a
brief illness of one week. Mrs. Morse
attended the entertainment here on
Friday eve previous and no one would
have selected her from the large gath
ering as the first to finish her life work
Death, it is said, loves shining mark,
and Gods dealings are mysterious to
us sometimes and His ways are past
finding out, but our faith in His wis
dom leads us to say, "Thy will be
DONE" She came into our midst in
the spring time and as our pastors
wife, became acquainted with large
circle of friends. She at once endear-
ed herself to all hearts by her sweet
and winning ways, her kindly interest
in the welfare of every one. She had
sweet smile and kind word for all,
cheering the respondent and making
the rough ways of life smooth by her
cheering presence. Many will remem-
Der with pleasure her words of advice
and cheer which frightened life's
pathway. Her amiable disposition
was adorned by perfect trust in her
Saviour, and the love she had for Him
seemed to shine out of the windows of
her soul. Her love for Him manifest
ed itself in strong desire for the adj
vancement of Christ's kingdom on
earth. Her work on earth is done, but
she will live in our memories and still
speaks to us by the perfect example Of
her young life. She has begun the
dawn OF a new day in the mansions Of
the blest and is now, we trust, singing
the "New song" We extend sympa-
thy to the bereaved husband and little
son. This sympathy comes from
hearts who know what death is by ex-
perience, for few houses are without
a vacant chair. May he with us look
to Heaven as nearer and Christ as
dearer for this dispensation of provi-
dence. N.
