two sisters and a brother to
mourn her loss. Our hearts are
sad and heavy, but faith tells us

her in her happy home, enjoying
the attractions Of heaven with
her loving Savior who saw fit to
call her unto Him in early life.

Darling Lila, she has left US,
Left ua. yes, for evarmore,
But we hope to meet our loved
one
On that bright and happy shoreE
Thy gentle voice now is hushed.
Thy warm, true heart is still,
And on thy young and Innocent
brow
Is resting deaths cold chill.
Thy hands are clasped upon thy
breast,
We have kissed thy lovely brow,
| And in our aching hearts we know
We have no darling Lila now.
