With the Angels.

On Monday, March 1S, 1896. Edward.
the fourteen months old son of Rev. G.
A. and Mrs. Eleanor Montgomery Dun
can died. 1t is sad to see the infant,
whose dimpled face and angel smile
has beguiled the household into loving
and to laughter, fade from US at the
touch of death. 1t is like taking from
our lives the rosy morning with it's
sunrise, and leaving us only the
shadowy evening.
Despite all medical skill, despite the
gentle thoughtful ministrations of a
good Christian mother, and the tender
care and sympathy Of a devoted father,
Edwards angelic spirit was summoned
to its home in the land of the blest. He
seemed to say:
81 hear a voice you can not hear,
Which says, l must not stay;
see a hand you can not see,
Which beckons me away"
To this child life promised many
pleasures. He was the first born of his
mothers love. To his loving father he
was a double joy; even bis smile lent
new sunshine to the earth. How the
sweet prattle of his childish voice and
the pattering of his infant feet, and
the trusting touch of his baby fingers
cheered the hearts of his loved ones.
But a loving Heavenly father has
taken his life and crowned it for other
service, and put into it new joy. Today,
doubtless, he is busy in angel ministries
saved forever from the ''evil to come,'
and
"Around our p~illows-golden ladders rise,
And up and down the skies,
With winged sandals shod,
The angels come and go,
The messengers of God" MRS. Al. c.
