Dedicated to the memory of the late

Why should we mourn for Willie, who sleeps
within the quiet tomb:
God only knows If lie had lived what would
have been his doom:
Oh, better far, to spare our tears for those who
lie. dead within his quiet grave, is happier far,
than Trey.
Why should we weep for he. whose life was as
tHe flowers pure?
An ocean of our tears would not more bliss for
him secure.
But mourn for those poor, fragile ones who still
dwell on the earth,
And pray that virtues flower fair. NAV in them
| epring Ia birth.
Oh. shed no tears upon his grave, lie who died
| III YOUTH
For lie IS happier far than we, who still LIES
| battles fght
| He sleeps III peace, secure from woes, beneath
! the silent sod;
| His earth freed spirit knows no grief cOmiuli-
| ming with his God.
The tragic death. on Wednesday, the
| 9th inst, of Willie Jolley, cast gloom
over our quiet vi lage, as the little
fellow was everybOdy'S favOrite. He,
! with few more playmates, went to
| the mill yard on that day to play. At
the entrance TO the yard pine laid on
the skidway and an eight-inch elm lay
across it, In some unaccountable way
he disturbed the pine. and fell; the
movement of the pine started the elm,
which rolled and caught Willie on the
forehead near the right temple. crush
ing his skull in AS quick us possible
he was removed to his fathers home
and medical aid called, but in spite Of
all efforts in about IL minutes he pass
ed peacefully away, without regaining
consciousness. The parents are heart
broken and have the sympathy Of the
entire community. Willie JOIley was
born III Brockway, May 4th, 1887. The
funeral was held on Friday from the
Presbyterian church, this place, at 10
o'clock. -Four of his schoolmates acted
as pall-bearer. Rev. Coulter, of Yale,
otiiciated and delivered an instructive
address At 10 o'clock the funeral re
formed, forty rigs being in line, and
moved to Moore's cemetery where
the remains were laid to rest
beside his twin sister May and his
mother. TO the family and friends we
extend our heartfelt sympathy in their
sad bereavement, and we thus only
echo the sentiment of the whole COM
munity.
