of Mai. W. H. I. Lewis. The Advocate
thus refers to her: "As wife, mother, friend
and ueighbor nae life Of Mrs. Lewis was
mirror which reflected nothing but what
was true. noble and good. If her virtues
were told in flowers, the atmosphere of her
home and social life would be redoent with
fragrance Ii the tender, sweet impulses of
her heart were told in music, the sweetest
melody would be one continuous song. The
brightest gems in celestial crowns are
mothers tears, snd the sweetest incense
which ascends before the great white throne
is a mothers prayers. With such sweet and
eloquent intercessious, the bereaved hearts
can look with confidence 10 be reunited
where there is no more death, tears or pain"
