'Wc have a son dead sweet son his
age we cannot tell
For they reckon not by years and

We cannot tell what FORM his is, what

Nor guess how bright Il glory crowns,
his shining seraph brow.
But we know for Goa hath told us
this. that ne Is now at rest,
Whore other blessed children be near
our Saviours' loving breast.
We know the angels fold him close.
beneath their glt,erlng wings.
And soothe him with q song that
breathes OF heaven divinest things
We know that we may meet our son

published in our daily papers, and
are doubtless familiar to you all, I
shall not harrow up the feelings Of
Parents and relatives by narratng It's

comfort and spiritual strength to those
breaking hearts, assuring them that
God Is too wise TO err, ana too good
to do wrong" and when all things
shall be revealed. and made clear and
plain, i'm that great day. when we
shall know the mystery Of the shoot

| ing stars sang together for joy, then
these great mysteries of how and why,
| the reverscs Of fortune of sickness and
death enter our homes, snap asunder
our hcurtstrings and give To us the
ashes Of an ineXpressible grief, in
stead of the fragrant flowers of re-
joiclng. Yes. in the hereafter-When
God shall reveal all, and make known
| To us the intricacles of his Divine
Providence, then we shall gladly con-
fcss. that all things have worked to-
gether for our good. and that little
brother Jessie, did not live in vain nor
did he die i'm vain, until then, let
us he content and calmly say with
the afflicted Patriarch Job. who SO
suddenly met with such ineXpressible
loss. "Tho Lord gave the Lord hath
taken away, blessed be the name OF
the Lord"
Dying hc left parents, one brother
and two sisters and many more dis
tant relatives. to mourn his early loss,
In their bohalf we desire to thus pub
licly return their sincere thanks for
your extended sympathy and kind
ness, to them all and to all those who
kindly contributed these lovely flow
ers. they wish to express their heart
felt thanks God bless you every one,
H. the prayer of their grief stricken
hearts, as they plead with the Saviour.
"Abde with MS, fast falls the oven
tide.
The darkness deepcns. Lord with us
abide.
SWIFT To its close Gibbs out lfe's lit
tie day,
Enrth's joys grow dim its glores pass
away
Change and decay in all around We
see
o Thou that changest not abide with
me-" (us)
More than three hundred persons by
actual count attended the service fol-
lowing which with many tears. the
body was laid to final rest in the
