We had the privilege Of reading
some letters written by Capt. Blair Of
the 4 Tenn, and the mother of Col.
Hannah to the bereaved parents of
George Riddle, which was full so
comfort and consolation to the sorrow
ing family. They said that after he
had read two letters from home he
seemed SO happy, and he turned over
, on his side and they thought he wa
a sleep, and as there was no struggle
no one could think that it was the
"Sleep from which none never awke
to weep" What a consolation it is to
think that our departed loved ones
have gone to rest. We believe that
our Heavenly Father let him get a
glimpse Of rhat beautiful home to
: whi.h he was going.

y This has evidently been the work 0
boys playing in the grounds, having
no regard for the sacredness of tn,

the grounds in charge feel that if pos
sible, they must bring to justice an,
parties thus offending, and the dut,
