A MOTHERS LOVE.
With = Bre.king Heart She Reads III
Daughters Funeral Service

With u breaking Heart She Reads Her
Daughters Funeral Service
There was simple funeral at Onk-
woods cemetery on a recent Sunday.
says the Chicago Tribune No priest
OF minister was there to read the bur-
ial service only heart-broken
mother who saw her only daughter go
to her grave, while a man who had
been a stranger to both and the under
taker watched the silent grief as the
coffin was hidden under the clay.
Unfortunate Mamie Jennings, whose
body was taken from the lake OFF Hyde
Park Thanksgiving day, would have
gone to a pauper's grave but for the
kindness of ]. 7. Luby, an operator on
the board of trade, who read the story
of the suicide and himself arranged for
q respectable, Christian burial. The
mother of the girl is without money
and, but for the aid of Mr.. Luby, who
had known neither, the girl would have
been buried by the county.
Mrs. Jennings claimed TO have asked
Kendall Street Christian church, where
the girl attended services, to send
minister to conduct the funeral. There
was no minister present, however. and
the mother, rather than see her daugh-
Ter DuTlcu "lllOul TcIlBLOuS ODStTN-
ance, stood beside the coffin of her
daughter and read a portion OF the
eleventh chapter Of the Gospel of St
John: For j am the resurrection and
the life" She read and there came a
solemn amen from the two who looked
on in reverent silence.
Snow had covered the mounds of
earth about the new made grave and
headstones were half hidden by the
mantle of white. Near by, long line
of carriages wound in and out among
the leafiess trees, following the hearse
containing the remains of a daughter
whose life had been passed in the
midst of riches and of luxury. Above
her grave were heaped beautiful
wreaths of flowers until the dark clay
was hidden and sorrowing friend,
stood by and sought to soften the griet
of mother and father.
At the other grave the mother gave
one look across the snow and then
| placed little bunch of faded forget
me-nots on the grave of her child and
! turned 10 where the one carriage stood
! There were no tears in her eyes, and

and the poor offering of flowers sh'
