look back over the past score of years and
think of the pleasant associations and remem.
Der the good counsel We received always
bright, cheerful and happy. As We have
watched her hair whitn year by year until
God had made it as snow, we see how He was
PREPARING her for His kiDgio Although she
had lived her allotted time on earth aud per-
haps has gune only a little while before some
Of us, We do not grieve as those without hope,
and while there is . vacant place in our So
eiety and in her home, which no other person
can FILL We tender to her sons our sympathy,
and pray Gods blessing may follow them,
aud that thoy may follow their mother as she
followed her Master, and when the time comes
for them to be called hence, they may hear,
as ne doubt she had heard, well done, good
and faithful servant"
Jesus, while our besrts are breaking,
Der the spoils that death has won,
We would at this solemn meeting,
Calmly say Thy will be DONE"
Though cast down, we're not forslken,
Though afflicted, not alone:
Thou did'st give, and Thou hast taken,
