Age and increasing infrmities NAV
slacken the heart beat; frequent bereav-
ments may quiet the pOignancy of grief.
but when one stands by the death bed of
loved and loving mother no former
experience prepares us for the ordeal.
We may have homes and families of our
own; the cares aud struggles of active
life may have absorbed our greatest
interest, but standing there in the
hushed presence of all that remains this
side Heaven of her who gave us life,
blessed be the fountain Of tears, the
hearts purest tribute to the best friend
one ever knew; the eyer present loving
guide of our childhood's lettering steps:
the wise and tender instructor of our
youth, and the ever anxious and prudent
counsellor OF our maturer years; and
to the latest OF her conscious days she
pOurs out wealth Of affection for her
children as warm and abundant as her
earliest mother love. The old home will
never be again what it used to be. The
light has gone out. The Republican
begs leave to extend it's expressions of
slncerest sympathy to the members of
the bereaved family.
