Death Of Lila May Gill.

day evening ut , O'Clock, at tho
age OF seventeen years and three
months.
This was one Of the saddest
deaths that has occurred in Homer
during all the past history of the

many claims and Ties Which bound
her to this life, and because of
aer death be::zag so unexpected.

We watch the flick sring of l,fe's
lamp in them with emotions SINH,
lar to those with which we look
upon the mellow glow of a summer
sunset. The grave in such cases
loses some of It's terrors, but when
the young, the beautiful and the
pure die, we marvel like the
skeptlc, and were it not for our
hope in the glories of a future
resurrection, would impu.n the
motives of u seemingly unjust
decree. The untimely fate Of this
dear young lady is indeed II sad
thought. But few days ago she
moved among us, young, beautiful,
modest and lovely, the PRIDE of
her devoted parents, and the joy.
Gus friend of her companions. 10
day, death lies on her like an
untlmely frost upon the sweetest
flower Of all the land"
THIS young lady possessed vlr-
tues and accomplishments that
are rarely found IN one so young.
With the prccepts and examples
OF godly parents to- guide and
direct her, she prolessed tle
Christian faith at an unusual early
age, so at her death she was one
OF the most useful and active
female members Of the Methodist
church at this place. She was
appointed organist both for church
and Sunday School service. when
but fourteen years old. Naturally |
OF line musical talent and possessed |
OF great. confidence, she filed |
the above position with credit to |
herself and satisfaction to the
up till her recent sickness
which caused her death.
But all these virtues and ac-
conipllshmcnts here, amount to I
naught, IN SO faras they tend to
arrest the hand of the destroying
angel which sooner or later will
pass over every household. How
ever, it Is q beautiful consolation,
