A gloom has been cast over this COM
immunity by he death of Miss Rosa Benson,
eldest daughter of Capt. James and Mrs.
Eva Benson, on May Z, sged twenty years.
Miss Benson came home from the Cas-.
tine normal school for the March vacation
in her usual health, as was supposed, but
almost i'm mediately upon her return was
seized with violent attack of pleuro-
pneumonia She rallied and seemed on q
fair way to recovery but was again pros
trated, and finally fell victim to con-
sumption,
A young and lovely girl, with high
hopes and noble aspirations, and a prom
Using career, suddenly removed from life,
where so many loving hearts and will, z
hands were eager TO save, seems one OF the
most mysterious dispensations of Provi-
-dence, but the all-Ioving Father has
higher work for her to do.
1t is hard to bow in submission to the
divine DEGREES, but ale who doeth all
things wsll'', gathered the beautiful bud
of promise ere it had expanded to the per
feet flower.
She hoped for recovery, spoke CONT
IDENTITY of her plans for the future until
almost the last. Then her mind began to
dwell ON those who had 'gone before,
and as hope grew faint her faith in the
unseen trengt hened. II am not afraid to
die" she saia, just before she fell into her
last profound slumber. AS she lay in her
-casket heaped BY loving bands with
choicest blooms, rare and costly wreath,
and the lowry flowers of the field, "deep
blue violsts'' gathered by children's hands
as last tribute to ''dear Rosa, she looked
in her marble beauty as II the "peace that
passeth all understanding" had indeed
set its seal upon the calm brow and placid
features.
She was looking forward ioyously to the
coming June when she, with the gradual
ing class OF Castine, would receive her
diploma, So long and faithfully striven
for, but though her Illness had been
wearisome, altei mating between hope and
despair in the loving hearts that minis
tered at her bedside, the end came peace
fully. OF her passing it most truly may be
said, as has been by gifted poet;
We watched her breathing through the night
Her breathing soft and low,
AS In her 0rea- the wave of life
Went ebjing to and fro.
But WHEN the sun in all his state
Illumed the eastern skies,
She passed through giory's morning gate
And walked la Paradise
The sympathies OF large circle of
friends are vii h Mr.. and Mrs Benson and
their remaining two children in this
great affection. May it be theirs to
realize the fuIlness Of that promise:
