Whereas, Almighty God has in His
wisdom removed by death tire infant
child of Mr.. and Mrs. Clint Smith on
June the 3rd, 1911. and since that home
has been bereft of this precious jewel:
Now therefore, We, Glass Number One
of the Columbia Baptist Sunday School,
of which Brother Smith is an appre-
ciated member, tender our sympathy in
this hour Of sorrow. In doing so we
feel that their loss is Heavens gain;
that the transplanting of this precious
little one into that Heavenly Home,
should serve as an add tional incentive
for greater desire on the part of its
parents to draw them to that Home of
Peace. Were it possible for us to give
consolation, we would cheerfully do so,
but we can only point to Him who can
bind up the broken heart, and whose
goodness is eternal.
Not in cruelty, nor in wrath,
The Reaper came that day;
Twas an angel visited the green earth
And took the flowers away"
