Saum's, did not start to look for him
until about 2:3O P. M. AS his brother
was going to cross fence he caught

Dearest one you now have left u.s.
Gone to dwell in heaven above;
There to be among the angels,
There to know thy Fathers love-
Darling husband, oh miss you,
Oft long for thy dear face,
But know you're with our Father,
That you now have won the race.
1t is 30 hard to part, my love,
But know you'll weep no more,
That you're safe among the angels
Soon, I'll meet you on that shore.
Oh, how sweet will be the greeting,
When we meet no more to roam,
Little George and are coming,
To meet you in your heavenly home.

no recognition to the Christian Endesyor
society. Frank Hartrsntt answered that
delegates representing 25 different societies
were present, and all could not be recogniz-
ed.
