The sad news reached here Thursday of
the death Of Mrs. Josiah Rand of Kingman,
Me-, mother of Mrs. A. p. Carr of this
town. Her loss will be remembered by a
large circle of friends whom her kind heart
and pleasant words had won. She was
sick but few days, when the messenger
came. She was a noble, good woman
in whose society there was sunshine. Her
true Christian character was felt and
known by all who came within her influ-
ence. Her life passed away as calmly and
peacefully as she had lived. 1t is heavy
blow which came with unexpected sadness
to her dear children and anxious husband
She leaves behind husband four daugh-
ters and two sons who were all present at
the funeral but one. They have the sym
pathy of the whole community in this
crushing trial.
Dearest mother, called before US,
How we miss you none can tell,
Now our earthly home is vacant,
oh how sad to say farewell!
But we know that you are resting
From all trouble, care and pain
And we hope in heaven to meet you;
Our loss is'yOur eternal gain.
