Alexandria's Death Roll During 1891.
Most any man, until he dies,
Still wants the earth." while failure frets him;
But yet don't seem to real 70
The earth wants him-and always gets him.
We lay be!ors the readers Of the GAZETTE
to-day (the last OF the year 1917 lies Of
thoss OF our psopla who died during the
past three hnndred and sixsy.ave days.
Some have quietly laid aside the pilgrim
staff surrounded by borrowing relatives and
friends; others have passed away through
the divers doors out Of which we make cur
exit Ooe hundred and thirty.iour
nsmos ara appended-some OF old and some
OF young, L, is probable that few OF the
former may have anticipated shu fling off
this mortal COLL during the year just closing,
and looked forward to happy release from
the tramme!s and diaoomftures of life. But
how many OF the young and middle aged
whose deaths are recorded realized the fact
that while the balls wsra announcing the
advent of 1891 thst ths sands Of their lives
we're nearly spen. and tae curtain had risen
upon the last sad act of lies tragedy Who
can say the coming yess VIII! hot wsDesa
the.ast scene; of all which shall e"i tbs
strange, eventual history OF both readsr erd
writers We cannot SEQ the "safs" for
1892, nor do any Of Us desire to lock upon
1t, for were 1t manifest to our finite ninds
who we're "booked" for that sad vossgs In
to eternity during the coming year, with The
henrtachea and SORROWS incident thereto, our
burdens would be heavy, indeed. There ls
10 this connection:
So live that when our SUMMONS comes
We 60 not like quarry alavos st night
Scourged to their dungeons but, sustained aid
sootbed
By an unfaltering trust, approach our graves
Like those who wrap the drspery OF their coucies
About them and lie down to pleasant dreams.
