frank Waldo Bailey was tile only child
of Mrs Jennie A. Bigelow. His fathers
name was Frank and bis mothers maiden
name was Waldo. So the little boy bore
his fathers and mothers names and was
the pride and JOY Of their home. When
only about a year old, little Frank was
left iatherless. Tenderiy and lovingly
was he cared for by his mother, who found
in him a constant and increasing source
Of comfort and happiness. His sweet ways
and gentle spirit made the long days seem
short and chased away the shadows that
had fallen on the home.
Frank was a boy Of much promise, in-
telligent beyond his years, and won the
esteem and love OF those who knew him.
His death seems untimely. A little more
than six ears old-but his memory will
never be erased from his mothers heart.
Like an early flower Of spring he passed
away into the Paradise OF God. He died
May %, 1891, in his mothers new home in
Royalton, where the funeral was held on
he last day of May, with flowers around
the casket containing the beautiful child
who seemed TO be tired and had fallen
asleep. The choir of the Universalist
church OF Bethel rendered fitting music,
and words Of comfort hope and faith we're
spoken by Rev. $ A. Parker. Little
frankie was buried beside his fathers
grave in the BetheI cemetery and soon the
grass will grow and the flowers bloom on
that little mound OF earth containing
precious dust Com.
