could not touch. He could not steal the
signet-ring of heaven. "Suffer little chill
dren to come unto Me and forbid them not
for of such Is the kingdom of heaven
Besides the grief stricken parents, who
have the sympathy of a host of friends in
their bereavement, he is survived by two

in the NJ. E church by Rev. w. o. Cal
houn on Sunday afternoon at 2:30 O'Clock
after which the body was laid to rest in
