of T. W. w. and q. A. Stinscu, was
born Sept. 8, 1882, and died Wed.
nesday, Oct. 25th, 1893.
Beautiful, frail little blossom,

around the hearts OF those at home,
the golden cords of love.
May the bereaved parents realize
that there are "beautiful beckoning

City, and when earth's trials and
conflicts are DER, oh! how sweet it
will be to meet our loved ones over
there!
