the Flanery building and which
looked to be very combustible. The
building had only last fall had a
fine heating system, bath, toilet,
ETC., placed in 1t, which caused an
outlay Of 5000; consequently Mr.

The grim reaper has again thrust
! his sickle into the harvest and Mrs.
Enos Vanzant was its victim.
Elizabeth Storer was born Dec. Is,
1859, and died Dec. IL, 1910. She
united in youth with the M. e. Church
at Fairfax, o., and in later years
transferred her membership to the
Presbyterian church at Belfast, o.
She was devout follower of Christ
until death.
She was united in marriage to Enos
Vanzant May II, 1878. To this union
was born five sons and seven daugh-
ters, one daughter, Ida Blanch, pre-
ceding her to the better world. A
husband, five sons and six daughters,
an aged mother, two brothers, eleven
grand children and host of friends
and relatives mourn the loss of a
precious one. She was great sufferer
for months, but bore her aflliction
with Christian spirit and was per-
fectly resigned to Gods will. She
was attended until the summon came
by her children, who gave all the at
tention that loving hands could do.
She called each member of her family
and told of the beautiful home that
was prepared for her and wanted her
family to live this life so that when
the cares of this earthly tabernacle
were ended they would be reunited to
be separated never more. 'Tis hard
to part with loved ones and friends so
dear, but, o, how sweet to be with
Jesus The mothers request was
that her eldest daughter, Miss Maud,
would care for her small children.
Farewell my home, my home no longer now
witness of many calm and happy day,
And Thou, fair Eminencc. upon whose brow,
Dwells the last sunshine OF evening ray
Farewell mine eyes no longer shall pursue,
The westerly sky beyond the utmost height
When slowly he forsakes the fields of light
No more the freshness of the falling dew.
Cool and delightful here shall bathe my be ad

Listening while watch the placid scene
The martins twittering meath the shed
Farewell. my home, where many day has
