Death has again visited our midst
and this time has taken Miss Madura
Hensley who died, of consumption,
at the residence of her brother, Mr..
William f. Hensley, up in Greeley
township, on Monday, December 26,
1898. She was born in Ohio forty
four years ago and came to Iowa
in her infancy, where she has since
resided: She had been lingering
some time, knowing that the end
must soon come, but frequently sig
nitied her willingness to go and be
at rest. The house was full at the
funeral, which was held on Wednes-
day, at the Methodist church, and
were conducted by Rev. o. L. Mich
OILS, assisted by Rev. II. L. Wissier,
of the Congregational church. The
remains were laid away in the Extra
Cemetery.
The morning. flowers display their sweets
As careles of the noontide heat
AS fearless of the evening cold.
So blooms the human face divine;
When youth it's pride of beauty shows:
Fairer than spring the colorS shine,
And sweeter than the virgin ros..
Or worn by slowly rolling years.
Or broken by sickness in day,
The fading glory disappears,
The short lived beauties die away
Yet these, new, rising from the tomb
With ulster brighter far shall shine;
revive with eVer-during bloom
safe from disease and decline. ~
