In Loving Thoughts of
Charlie.

How short his stay, but God gave him
and God has taken him. So let US bow
in humble Submission to His will, know
ing He is too wise to err But, OH his
death cast a gloom over our hearts, like
the shadow of dark cloud passing be-
tween US and the midday sun. He has
left father, mother. wife, two sisters and
two brothers, besides grandmother.
uncles, aunts, and host of dear friends
who will tenderly bear him in their
memories, till they too, pass over the
River of Death. No one knew him but
to love him. While he never made any
profession of religion. yet he bore in
that deep and assuming manner that
characterized his life, in his sickness for
all he suffered much he never murmred
but met death in the same gentle manner.
All that willing and loving hands could
do, assisted by the skill of the best physi-
clans of the town was done but, God called
him home. His funeral was preached
by Elder James Gilbert at the home of
his dear brother and sister, Chenault
Duncan. After he was entomed and
friends had covered his grave with
wreaths Of lovely flowers, his loved ones
returned home. wishing most Of all they
could see Charles dear face once more
May God who is rich in grace, grant this
wish through the glorious resurrection.
He was married just six weeks. one
day, leaving his young wife so soon to
mourn his death.
Lie lightly on our darling earth,
Press gently on his side;
Short sixteen years beside our hearth
Then laid him down and died.
We miss him here, we miss him there,
Naught breaks his deep reposing;
No more his talk by day we share,
No smile when day is closing.
We call, he answers not the while,
His thoughts we cannot measure.
This home is best, he seems to smile,
Our lost but living treasure.
Days, months and years must pass with
out him,
His memory is all that is left to us here,
But dream that in heaven we shall
gather around him.
Our hearts vanished idol that was TO us
so dear.
