DEATH OF A LITTLE CHILD.
Mr.. and Mrs. j. w. Shepards Little
Girl Is Claimed by the Angels.

On the morning of September % the
| Angel of Death visited the home Of
Mr.. and Mrs. =. w. Shepard anG
claimed for his own dear little Mag
gle Win, aged twenty one months.
She was bright and lovely child. II
was so hard to give her up. Oh, how
anxiously we watched around her lit
tie bed, looking with sad and broken
hearts for one ray of hope. but the
dear little darling had to go. Her
sufferings are over, and we can
realize that Jesus died for her and
she will be His when He comes to
make up His jewels. Dear weeping
parents, your loved one is not lost,
but gone before. That sweet and low
ing voice once heard is now still in
death, never to be heard by you
again. May the dear parents, broth
of God in the removal of little Mag
gle Will, and be enabled to say 'tl.e
Lord giveth and the Lord taketh
away: blessed be the name of the
Lord" She leaves father and moth
er, four brothers and two sisters to
mourn her loss.
There is happy, peaceful home
Where no sad partings ever come;
And in that home that's free from care
We hope to meet our darling there.
They laid her low beneath the sod,
There to await the call of God;
And upward then will she arise,
Ascending high above the skies.
Rest on, dear little Maggie WILL
The will of God we know is done;
Now of the joys of heaven tell
And with angels to dwell.
HATTIE.

Respected Citizen Near PARROT Passes
to the Long Reward.
On the morning of September 10 the
Angel of Death entered the home OF
Mrs. Emma Mccain and took away
the loving husband, Mr.. L. M. Nc
Cam. He left three step-sOns, who
are loved by everybody, and they are
SO kind to lonely mother-Messrs.
Ralph and Lyman and little Floyd
Mccain.
Mr.. Mccain was a good man, and
was esteemed and respected by many
friends. He was 80 years of age, and
had lived in Terrell county long
time. There never was better man,
and the home is so lionel without him.
One precious to our hearts has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
The place made vacant in our home
Can never more be filed
There was an angel band in heaven
That was not quite complete,
So God took your darling one
To fill the vacant seat,
Heaven containeth now our treasure,
Earth the lonely CaSket keeps;
And the sunbeams love to linger
Where our darling one sleeps
oh the hope the hope so sweet,
THAT we soon in heaven will meet.
There we shall happy be,
Rest from pain and sorrow free
FRIEND.
