Farewell to Death.

~ AZ
Years ago I was at Fire Island, Long
Island, and 1 went up in the cupola
from which they telegraph to New
York the approach of vessels hours be-
fore they come into port. There is an
opening in the wall, and the operator
puts his telescope through that opening
and looks Out and sees vessels far out
at sea. While I was talking with him
he went up and looked out. He said,
"We are expecting the Arizona to-
night" l said: "Is it possible you
know all those vessels? Do you know
them as you know a mans face?" He
said: Yes. | never make a mistake.
Before 1 see the hulls 1 often know
them by the masts. 1 know them all
1 have watched them so long"
Oh, what a grand thing it is to have
ships telegraphed and heralded long be-
fore they come to port, hat friends
may come down to the wharf and well
come their long absent ones! So today
we take our stand in the watch tower,
and through the glass of inspiration we
look off and see a whole fleet of ships
coming in. That is the ship of peace,
flag with one star of Bethlehem float
ing above the top gallants. That is the
ship of the church, mark of salt water
high upon the smokestack, showing she
has had rough weather, but the Cap
tain of Salvation commands her, and
all is well with her. The ship of heav-
en-, mightieSt craft ever launched, mil
lions of passengers waiting for millions
more, prophets and apostles and mar
tyrs in the cabin, conquerors at the
foot of the mast, while from the rig
ging hands are waving this way as If
they knew us, and we wave back
again, for they are ours. They went
out from our own households. Ours!
Hail, hall Put off the black and put
on the white. Stop tolling the funeral
bell and ring the wedding anthem.
Shut up the hearse and take the char
lot.
Now the ship comes around the great
headland. Soon she will strike the
wharf and we will 60 aboard her. Tear
for ships going out. Laughter for ships
coming in. Now she touches the wharf
Throw out the planks. Block not up
that gangway with embracing long lost
friends, for you will have eternity Of
reunion. Stand back and give way un-
til other millions come aboard her.
Farewell to sin! Farewell to struggle!
Farewell to sickness! Farewell to
