OBITUARY..

DIED. AT the residence of hel
parents, in this town, Tuesday, Sep,
TENDER 20, 1908, at 6 p. m. HILDA
ANGEL DOMERGUE, daughter OF
E. J. Domergue, Jr. and Belle War
rem, aged 6 months and II days.
After long suffering the Angel OF
Death came to her relief and pluckeo
this lovely little bud and bore it away
to bloom eternally in the better land.
The idoIized pet of happy house,
hold, the anguish her sad death has
occasioned is too keen. for human con-
ISOLATION to assuage.
Warm falls the sunlight on thy
grassy pillows, sweet human blossom.
Softly falls the night dew on the blue
eyed violets above thee; side by side
with thee are hearts that have long
since ceased hoping or aching. Al
await in their dreamless bed, with
folded hands, closed eyes and silent
lips, alike with thee, the glorious
resurrection morn.
Choice are the gifts. God needs again,
Lending them but \ h lie.
Holding the precious baby feet
From the sin that would beGuile.
Maybe the links of a hidden chain
Are doing their duty well,
Reaching to bind two stricken hearts;
Only the Lord can tell.
Maybe the sorrow, trouble and tears
Brighten the furnished gold;
Maybe the tiny baby hands ...-
Beckon them to the fold.
Blessed be God, she's safely housed.
Safe from the storms to come.
Resting within the Saviour'S arm.
Watching to welcome them home.
A FRIED.
