IN MEMORY OF MRS. GEORGE M, DAY.

Last Wednesday morning-January
25th-Mrs. George M. Day passed TO
her reward. She was sick only one
week and two days. 1t wasa very sad
and unexpected death. Though dear
friends. it should be a comfort for us
to know that Mrs. Day was a good
Christian woman, is now relieved OF
her serving and that dawn is not
distant" and we are to deposit In the
same cerement our sorrows and our
bodies and to ascend In escence to a
glorious meeting with the friends we
have loved and lost, and whom we
shall still love and never lose again.
Let us say with the poet: BE still
sad hearts and cease repining, beyond
the clouds is the sun still shining" "
Thy fate, the common fate OF all, In
| to each life some rain must fall, some
DAYS must be dark and dreary." Let
this be your consolation; The gate
throgh which she has passed TO peace
and 10y unspeakable Is left open SC
that we In due time may follow. May
God bless you dear friends and lighter
your weight Of sorrow, is the sincere
wish Of A FRIEND,
