IN MEMORI4M

JAMES DUFFY, who died at Frostburg, Md,
Friday, February 26, 1896
A STAR has merged its brillance
II In the vast, eternal sun,
And to-day in earth's weak parlance
A good mans course is run.
The gloomy face of nature
He made cheerful, bright and gay,
But JIMMIE, our fond brother,
Has forever passed away.
The precious gift of liberty
God on each man bestOws;
Its proper bounds and due restrictions
Everybody knows.
He chose this word he loved SO well,
He reigned but for awhile
For Jesus called him hOmeward
And he passed off with smile.
The rose of his life-it bloomed many wears
But it faded to day it is dead
The ointment of heaven encountered the
flower
And weighed down its beautiful head
1t will yet bloom again
In far grander cline
In the Paradise garden of gam,
Where deeds of the Just are rewarded,
Heaven never knows sorrow nor pain.
March cit AFRIEND.

Ready TOGO.

Henry B. Shaffer is lying upon bed
of illness from which he does not ex-
pect to rise. With clear mind, perfect
composure and resignation that
seems to be cherished, he talks as one
who, having put all his affairs in salts
factory order, is ready to retire from
business. Concerning the future he
entertains the christians hope. Not
only so, his choice is to go-to make
the journey as of one who is called to
a better country. 1t is as though he
had already entered the duration in
which there is no fear of death. Like
Socrates, he is dying like phi
losopher," but, unlike the great sage,
he feels that
To die is landing ON some other shore,
Where pillows never break nor tempests roar.
