daughter of Mr.. Benson Smith, was born
December. 14th, 1877. After u short, but

Although young in years she was strong
in faith, and all through her sutfrrIngs,

shine of her bright disposition made
many friends. Perhaps no one was more
generally loved, in the circle of her ac-

But precious as she was, to her friends
and relatives, we know it was for the

her back from her happy estate. She has
