Obituary.

Died, at Rec Heights, S. D., Dec.
9th. Lottie Fern, aged twenty one
months and twenty II days, only
child of Peter and Ida Watkins. For
several months the little one had
been in failing health, not suffering
pain, but growing weaker day by
day, and though medical skill and
loving care were layished on her.
after one week OF suffering, on Sun
day night at eleven o'clock, her pure
spirit passed away to Him who said
"of such is the kingdom Of heaven"
The funeral was held at the church
Tuesday and was largely attended,
for all loved the little child, and al
ways had u kind word and smile for
her. Frey. p. b. Fisk spoke most
comforting words from the text:
"And all wept and bewailel her, but
he said, weep not She is not dead
but sleepeth." Softly and sweetly IL
choir sang those beautiful words:
Jesus lover of my soul" and other
appropriate hymns, and the little
form was laid to rest in the G. 4, Il.
cemetery at Miller.
Dear little Fern, her mission on
earth was soon fulfilled. but during
her brief stay, she had twined herself
so closely around the hearts OF pa
rents, grandparents and other rela-
tives that when death sundered the
ties, it lett torn and bleeding hearts,
that only time and the Great Physi-
elan can heal. And as we fold away
the little garments she used to wear,
and gather up the scattered play
things, we feel that much OF the sun
shine has gone out OF our lives, tho
heaven does not seem so far away,
now she is there.
Farewell little one, we know "it was
better to 90 in the morning light
than wait for the evenings gloom"
and sweet memories of thee will 90
with us the remainder OF LIES weary
Journey, till we meet thee on the
"other side" where God shall wipe
away all tears from our ewes
