A Tribute.

To our friends: 1t matters not
whether it comes in the rose-tlnted
morning of infancy, when all earth
sparkles with the dewdrops of joy; or,
like the thunderbolt falling unheralded
from a clear sky in the full orbed noon
day Of manhood, or quickly taking pos-
session of its victim in the evening of
life when the shadows of night are fast
gathering around the stopped and aged
form, death is a tragedy as deep and
dark as can be woven of the warp and
wool of hope and dispair.
While we know that all who breathe
and tread the earth today must at last
share the destiny of those who have
passed over the bridge which spans the
mysterious the dividing line be-
tween the two eternities; still, when
the end comes and our loved ones are
carried from as, we are wholly UMPIRE
pared for the sacrifice and in the
shadow of an overwhelming sorrow the
heart staggers, hope grows dim for a

turned to confusion.
And thus it was on Wednesday even
ing, May Il, 1911, at 2 o'clock, the
beautiful soul of my dear wife vas
called to the bright beyond, where only
those who walk the straight and mar
row path have hope to tread. She gave
her heart to God in early childhood,
and her life was one of perfect trust
and faith in her Master. Just why
this beautiful flower in the bloom of
youth has been plucked from our horne
and loved ones, We are unable to un-
%derstand, only through the religion in
which she was so s~teadfast, that God
was just in all dealings.
No matter how great the trials or
dark the prospect, she looked deep into
the future with the eye of faith, anc
her sublime soul was serene. In hel
life she bodied forth the spirit of the
Nazarene, living the things that Others
prayed, ever though
The face of God grew dim,
She held through the dark and trusted
Him.
know she is at rest, but her goinl
has left a vacancy in our hearts ant
lives which eternity alone can fill.
For the generous and loving friends
whose tender sympathy, sweet word
of comfort and kindly Offices have cor
tributed so much to lessen the weigh
of sorrow in this sad hour, | have no
language to express my gratitude an
love. God grant that they may not b
called upon 500 to bear a like affliction
