ers up the long list OF those who have
gone over the river during these months.
The sad death OF Miss Lizzie McGrew,
whose young spirit went out into the
unknown, 90 far away from home and
friends, started these reflections. How
her death calls TO mind another, whom
the angels came after now nearly six
years ago. No one who has not had a like
sorrow, knows how to fully s~ympathize
with the bereavsd ones. The hearts OF
Brother and Sister McGrew will feel 4
pang, when the sad news reaches them
that they never knew before. May the
good Lord prepare them for the stroke
and console them with His grace. In this

for second season OF Ellean. "Mr.
