Each life IS but a fceting breath
BeSet with pain and sorrow.
The thTo0bing pulse cen tells of death
That cometh with the morrow.
Good words may soothe the troubled mind
Unused to JOY pleasure.

Are works OF fullest measure.
So may this end be kept in view.

A Sudden Death

John M. Forsythe died suddenly at
Morrill's livery stable at St. Johnsbury,
Thursday afternoon. He left home in
the morning seemingly we'll as usual say
ing he would be home early; had been
employed in tina gas house during the
forenoon. Several attacks OF rheumatic
fever had left him with a weak heart
which, doubtless, at last failed. He was
born in Shipton, Quebec, June 27, 1847,
the youngest ola family of II children;
came to Sheffield when he was 10 years
of age to live with a brother, worked in
Lyndon and Ryegate, went to Manches-
ter, N. H., when &c, married Jennie Nc
Donald; went to East Haven where he
lived II years In March, 1891, he came
to St. Johnsbury Center where he has
since lived. For the last II years he has
been employed in the scale shops. He
leaves a wife and four children to mourn
the loss of a most devoted husband and
father. Mr.. Forsythe was most
worthy member and steward OF the
Methodist church and belonged to the
New England Order of Protection which
was well represented by large body Of
members at the funeral Sunday after
noon. OF Mr. Forsyt the it may be said
he was above teproach, true and faithful
in all the duties and relations OF life. He
will be greatly missed and deeply
mourued.
