Obituary..

The dark pail of death tell on the
home Of Mr.. and Mrs. j. j. Curry of
Atlantic, on Saturday afternoon,
October q, when their baby, Harold
Hallock, was taken from them.
The little one had not been as
strong as some children of his age,
but in the few weeks preceding his
death had changed and grown so we'll,
that he promised all that could be de-
sired, thus making the loss more
keenly telt when the final summons
came. Only few short hours were
required to change the brightest home
into sadness and darkness, and all the
plans and highest hopes of fond low
ing hearts fell crushed and broken at
our side.
The funeral services were held at
the Hallock home in Oaktield, on
last Sabbath p. m, at one O'Clock
when large number of friends had
gathered to sympathize with the sad
hearted parents and grand parents,
all of which were present.
Rev. Wissler, of the Congregational
of Extra, conducted the services,
preaching sermon from Song Sol.
6;2, after which the body was laid to
rest in the Oakfield cemetery. May
He who alone knows the depth Of
sorrow, comfort the saddened hearts
and at last gather these when he
co mes to make up his jewels.
"And they shall be mine saieth the
Lord of hosts in that day when
make up my jewels. Mat. SLY.

Petersen, Of Oakfield township, was
driving to town, his team became I'M
manageable and ran away, throwing
Charley out of the wagon. He land
