A FRIEND.

How sad we are made to feel when
called upon to chronicle the death of
friends and loved ones.
Such is the sorrow we are made to
feel in noting the death of little Mat
tie B. the seven year old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Ben Hunter who died of
congestion Sept. ID. How beautiful is
life when the sunshine of promise
stands high in the zenith and the recol-
lection of that brilliancy defes ever the
horizon of our lives to be dim.
How forgetful we are of Gods mercy
and rely only upon human strength,
human love and human ability, to per-
feet the vain ~facinations thus began,
by unreasonable hopes. So ended the
joys of the life of little Matte who was
sent to brighten the home of those
fond parents for so short a period.
She sweetened the home with the
prefume of love and closed her eyes to
the d~eceitfulress of this life only to
open them in an atmosphere that is
made rure and real bv the presence of
God. The little rosebud is transplanted
On another shore with the loving Saw
ior while the parents hearts are break
ing because of the loss of this precious
one. A FRIEND.

IN MEMORIAM.

On Sept. 9Th, after a brief illness there
passed from earth, Mrs. S. J. Aston,
(nee Miss Virginia White.) in the 63rd,
year of her life. She was the widow
of the late Chas. Aston, who was well
known and respected in this community
as an honorable man of sterling worth,
and who was esteemed and loved by
his neighbors as a devoted Christian
full of kindness of heart and g~entleness
of spirit.
Mrs. Aston was a loyal Methodist,
was a member of the Soule Chapel
Church, where her husband was the
faithful and efficient Superintendent of
the Sunday School for years. Child
like faith and simple earnestness char
acteristized her christian life To the
erd she was cheerful and brave because
she trusted in her Savior.
She was a good woman and a most
devoted wife and mother. nher home
her affectionate loving voice was always
cheerful and kind, encouraging and
sympathetic. Indeed her devotion to
home and family was rare, and the five
children who survive her will sadly miss
her tender ministry.
Astounding in charity and love she
was a benediction to her neighbors and
they were her friends. Sincere and
simple in her manner hospitable and
generous in her nature she was a worthy
friend and brought comfort and cheer to
many hearts outside her family circle.
The last wish of this mother heart
was to see and know all her children be-
fore leaving her earthly home, and her
last words showed her willingness to
go at her Masters call. They were the
natural expression Of the dual motive of
her life-affection to her loved ones
and obedience to her Divine Father
and they will linger in the hearts of her
children to comfort and strengthen
them in their deep sorrow.
A FRIEND.
