In MemOriam.

Death, the silent reaper, soon to gather
US all within his unseen arms, haa again cast
a gloomy sbadowsover our community by
claiming as his victim, on Monday, January
28th, 1896, Rebecca W Page, at the age of
10 years, | month and II days.
She deserves more than passing notice.
This estnable woman, eschewing the vani-
ties and professions OF the world, possessed
in an eminent degree those shining qualities
which ever adorn the female character and
which rendered her an object OF yeDera ton
ana love to all those among whom she min
gled. Of gentle disposition, she was ever
ready to dispense to those around her what
ever kindness was in her power. She was
always devoted and untiring, and although
the chasm in her family occasioned by her
death can never be filled, yet we cherish the
abiding faith that our loss is her gain, and
that she is now reaping the reward of well
spent life.
On Tuesday the 18th, we sadly followed
her mortal remains to the VI. Il. Church,
Cedar Grove, where II great Outpouring OF
people had assembled to show last tribute
Of respect 10 The departed. Rev. l. X Mil
bourne, Of Rockville, spoke feelingly and ell
oquently Of the many virtues that made the
life of the deceased so conspicuous
When the services at the church were over
the remains were borne to Salem cemetery
where, just before the sun was sinking behiud
the western hills, We laid to rest all that was
left TO us of our darling grandma
Farewell, grandma, now we parted, on this
earth we, II meet no more,
Never more ! hear thy blessing whispered
Ger me as OF yore,
Tears are falling, dearest grandma, binding
tears that quickly flow,
For my dearest grandma never more will
meet below.
By her granddaughter,
