GOSHEN, Jan. l5.-On the evening of

seven children. She was kind and
affectionate wife, loving mother, a
dear sister, and good neighbo She
had been patient sufferer from that
dreaded disease, la grippe, and died a
triumphant death in the Savior's love.
1t does seem so hard that she was taken
away from us just in the bloom or lie,
but the all-wise Father knew 1t was
best to break the family circle and call
this one up higher to live forever with
lin and the angels. May the sarvlV-
ing ones so live in this world that after
death thew NAV hear the words of the
Savior: Come, We blessed of my faith
err, inherit the kingdom prepared for
Won from the foundations of the world. y
The funeral services were conducted
at the home of the deceased by the
pastor, Rev. William j. Hatcher.
Burial at Goshen graveyard.
We enjoyed a very interesting SER
mon last Sunday afternoon, delivered
by Rev. Mr.. Hatcher.
The young people of this place en-
loved themselves few nights ago at an
entertain ment given at the home OF MI
Felix Beard.
There was also an entertainment at
Mrs. Sallie Gidcomb's a few nights
since.
