wish not to be buried under any order but
to have quiet burial, choosing Grand

w. Wiley. The flowers were beautiful:
pillow from his wife, bunch of white
carnations from MIR. and Mrs. w. j. Joslyn
wreath from the G. A. r., a cluster of
roses from the Ladies' Aid Society, also
from Mr.. and Mrs. E. c. Skinner, and q
| mass OF Gala lilies from Mr.. and Mrs. c.
| Skinner. Mr.. Haselton lived an exemplary
| life, good citizen, a loving unselfish, in
dulgent husband, kind father, bright
Christian whose faith grew brighter and
more firm until the last. His physician
| labored with untiring efforts to arrest the
progress of disease which had such strong
hold upon him; his every want and need
was administered to by his nearest and
dearest friends. The Lord had a work for
him to do and took him to himself. The
home sustains a loss which can never be
| nd he :
sympathy of the community at large.
Can I, can give him up,
Drink the fill of sorrows cup,
Must J., must let him go,
Dearest husband loved him so!
Father. Father, hear my cry,
Helpless, now. to Thee pll fly.
Father, Father I'll submit,
| All this cup of sorrow sip.
Yes. we've closed his eyes gently
| In their last dreamles slumoer.
We've folded his hands softly
O'er the heart that's ow still.
We have borne him away
From our thrice broken circle,
His place that's now vacant
No other can fill. b
Dear wife and loved children,
Pm happy il heaven;
The dark waves of sorrow
| Can ne'er reach me more
| And tho YOU are left
| In your home now so lonely
| Ill be waiting and waiting
For you on the other shore.
Christ, Oh Christ,
| My portion be q,
Till my loved ones
! shall see.
Jesus, Jesus, bring me there
To my dear ones in the Ian d so fair.
; Bring me to my loved at last
In the country of the blest.
