Gin white," and in the impressive SER
vice Of the church was united to one
to whom she had given her whole
heart, the wealth of her devotion.
She went out from us crowned with
flowers never to return. But her
memory remains. The influence of
her kindly deeds and generous, loving
nature lives, and will extend in the
many hearts both young and old, on
which she made an impress for good.

mind us of the higher life which hers
so fittingly portrayed. Such lives,
though brief, are potent. To such
there is no death. They grow more
radiant as they pass beyond, and
though in one sense dead, "they will
still speak to u.s."
