One sister survives her. living in
Philadelphia. Death is sad under
any circumstances, but when the
young whose hearts have scarcely
been brought in touch with life's
experiences must be consigned to
the grave, it is doubly sad. Bless
ed with sweet and joyous nature
this young life gave promise of
usefulness and noble wOmanhOOd.
She was as devoted daughter
to the kind and loving relatives
who ministered so faithfully unto
her. A a scholar, respectful,
always conscientious and faithful
to her duties, thus endearihg her
self to those with whom she was
associated in school life. Her
faith iu her Heavenly Father was
such that while life held much,
yet she bowed to the "Divine
WILL" and her whole being was
patience and submission to
higher power. 1t is sad indeed
that a life so full of promise
should be cut off just at that
period when brightest hopes be-
gan to bud. A few short months
and little we thought that She
so blest with Health and strength
would soon be sleepingsthe sleep
that knows no natural waking.
Now. in the quiet little cemetery,
not far distant from those whom
she loved, and who loved her
by the side Of father and mother
she has been laid to rest. The
gay and tender visions of her
young life, sthe associations of
loving ones, all wither under the
touch of death, while every thing
with which her young life was
associated will recall her with a
pang which time alone, can III
any measure soften. 1t is not
for us to lift the veil that envel-
ops the sorrowing home. for this
sorrow throws its shadow over
their brightest hours, but the
kindly sympathy shown will
shine through it, which paiuts
bright pictures of the departed,
saying: could you see her in
her celestial home, you would
behold her rObed in the splendor
OF spotless white. standing with
ontstretched arms reckoning You
onward and upward" Her rest
is peace, and who would call her
back TO endure the sorrows and
temptations of this worldi We
Will rather remember her as one
added to the Masters fairest
and brightest flowers plucked,
by the Icy fingers of death and
transplanted with loving care to
a holier and happier life. to live
forever in the realm of eternal
life. Il. n.
