December 18th. DIR. Nickel assisted
b. DR.. BraockLihe of Higginsvine, did
all in their Power for the littl, one
but of npavall. The funeral was held
a-she house by having a short service
by Rev. VIM Beuhler. The body was
then taken to the German cemetery
east of town and buried, after which
the regular funeral services was held
a. the German church. This pre-
caution was taken on account of
SYMPTOMS Of diphtheria. Louise was a
nice, sweet tempered little girl four
years old. This Is the first death in
this family and they will surely miss
their darling little girl, which was so
much comfort to them. They can
console themselves with the thought
that the blessed Savior said, "Suffer
little children and forbid them not to
come unto me for such is the Kingdom
of Heaven" What a blessed
thought to think that their loved one
is safe in the fold. And the city that
needs not the sun neither the moon to
shine in 1t, for the glory O; God will
tighten Il and the Lamb is the light
thereof, and to think there shall be
no more death neither sorrow, nor
snail there be any more pain. So let
US trust him more as the days go by
To the family we extend our deeptst
sympathy for we know the sadness
around the Hearth stone in this home
for We have passed under the rod and
know how they feel. May the Lord
bless them and hover around them and
cause them to think of the "Home
over there, and how soon will be the
time for US TO go TO meet our loved
ones in the Heavenly jerusalem.
