A TRIBUTE

To Mrs. Minnie Crancum who Departed
This Life April 18th, 1898.
She Is not dead but sleepeth
In the arms of Jesus blest;
And, according to her own confession,
To Heaven, she has gone to rest.
AS she laid all stricken with fever and pain,
She assured us her prayers to God, were
And as she laid, unable ITO raise her head,
She pointed to the angels, lowering
round her bed.
AS sat by Sh her bed and put my hand upon
That was the time when I began to weep;
Then she assured me-and asked me not to
That the death of Christian was easier
than sleep. ~ ,.s
She always gentle and mild, @
Her enemies she always met with
smile; ' .~ q 4:1s III f,..,.. :.
And often wondered why people without
Then, could ever be so vile.
She passed away without a groan,
And left her dear husband here to moan.
Cruel Death, her side he gored,
But now to Heaven, she has scared.
Time and again she asked me not to cry,
But said if I would faithfully try
For Heaven with the ange1s, A.,
would surely meet her bye and bye.
She was a dear, good wife,
For whom I loved to strive; ..s-
But she's now at rest IN Heaven
Where her soul is still alive.

The Ancient Inscription Over the

In 1916 one Joseph GeOrgeirenes,
archbishop of Samos, came to London
to obtain assistance in publishing a
book of devotions for the use of the
orthodox community, says Notes and
Queries lie found his compatriots
at the west end of London without a
church, and on his application to
Compton bishop of London, gave him
piece of ground in Soho fields on
which to build one. The bishops
name, by the way, is still preserved
IN that of the adjacent Compton street,
as also in FIRTH street is the name of
one Mr.. FIRTH, who acted for his lord
ship in the matter.
GeorgeiTenes succeeded in collecting
some 6 SEQ and the church was ul-
timately built. 1t was dedicated to
St. Mary the Virgin and over its door
was placed stone-incised inscription,
which exists, in excellent preservation,
TO this day. 1t is in rather fantastic
modern Greek characters, impossible
to reproduce in type, and has been
translated as follows:
''In the year of salvation 1877 this
temple was erected for the nation of
the Greeks-the most serene Charles
II. being king of the royal Git. born in

what | mean:
Once, when In Paris. Napoleon paid p
visit to a hospital for old soldiers.
Among the inmates was an old man who
had lost an arm. The emperor asked
him:
where did you lose your arm?"
"a Austerlitz, sire"
Then, no doubt, you curse the en-
perOr and yonr country for our fate?"
"On the contrary" said the veteran,
for the emperor and your country

II can hardly believe it," said the EN-
percr.
The soldier Immediately drew saber
from its sheath and Topped off the other
arm.
