HE is NOT GONE"

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Heidi
was born Dec. 20, 1889, at Walcott
Scott county, Iowa, and died at Du.
range, Nov. 30, 1909 Aged 10 years,
II months, l day.
He has been a resident of this city
nearly two years. having arrived in
the month of February, 1908. He
worked for a year at the jackson
Hardware company and for the last
six months at the smelter.
Some time ago while engaged in
his work he slipped on the gang plank
and struck his head SO severely upon
u car that it is thought this injury
had much TO do with his inability to
overcome the typhoid which developed
later and is assigned as the cause
of his death.
1t seems sad indeed, when looked
at from the human standpoint only
that a young man just In the prime
of his young manhood, SO strong and
healthy, and proving himself such
blessing to the father and mother who
nourished him, should thus suddenly
be cut down, yet when We remember
that this earth is not our home" but
we all, like Abraham, are sent here to
seek city without foundations whose
Maker and Builder is God, then we
get viewpoint. from which it all looks
different and to die as young Heidi
has died in the fulness of His new
found faith in Jesus Christ, is a con
summation of life's journey most de.
voutly to be wished.
