ST. DAVIDS
GOLDA GOLLADAY DEAD.

1t becomes our sad duty to chroni-
Gle the death of Coda Ethelda Cola
day at ST. Davids, Friday morning,
May 10th, 1912.
Many of the readers of your valued
paper will remember that about seven
years ago she had an acute attack of
appendicitis and was at once taken to
the Strasburg Hospital where she was
operated on, and treated for about
ten weeks. She was then brought
HON at the time of the death of her
mother which had occurred at the same
hospital.
She was still great sufferer for a
long time, and finally kidney trouble
dev eloped in such form as to battle
the skill our best physicians. AL
most beyond description were her SUI
ferings during the greater part OF the
last seyen years No means and eff
forts we're spared in trying to comfort
and relieve her, but no permanent re-
lief till death ended her young life.
Seldom, if ever was there one so young
with so many friends far and near.
Coda seemed to be favorite child to
all who knew her and to know her was
to love her. And the lesson Of her life
and untimely death teaches US more
and more the vanity of earth, the
l. ~ Nf ho iYot " of
death. Her age was 1years, 9 months
and II days. She was the only daugh-
ter of S. J. E. Golloday who with
many other near relatives survive to
mourne her early death. Her funeral
was preached at Mount Zion Saturday
afternoon by the pastor, Rev. G. L..
Hunt, basipg his comforting remarks
on Psalms ll6, Is. precious in the
ght of the LORD is the death of his
Saints after which her body was
laid to rest in the family grave yard
in the presence of a very large crowd
of people.
The pallbearers were her cousins,
| Audra and Wilma Golladay, Maude
Glen and Maude Burner, all beauti-
fully attired in white. The floral
| tributes were fine.
SO fades the lovely blooming flower,
! Frail smiling solace of an hour,
So soon our transient comforts fly,
| And pleasure only blooms to die.

In sad but loving rene nberance of
our dear father, Raphael C. Bsuser-
man who DEF a. tel this life, Msy I t
1912, aged 70 years, 1 months and 9
days.
Oh! the misery of that evening,
AS we stood around his bed
" atching death steal upon HIM slow
ly,
Then we knew his soul had fed.
What grief and pain ne suffered here,
Nore will eyer / o.,
For Jesus took him home with Him
Where no tears wi eyer flow.
When we leave this world OF changes,
When we leave this world of woe,
We shall find our missing loved one
II our fathers mansion fair.
Dearest ties can ever sever.
Take our loved ones fr1 m our 81 lie
Bear him from our home forever
Der the dark cold river tide.
Gone in the best of days.
Frightened in manhood bloom,
Torn from the hearts that loved him
| To sleep in the silent tomb.
We know you are robed and walking,
Through the golden streets,
And Oh! won't there be gladness,
When we all in glory meet.
We have lost our darling father,
He has bid US all adieu,
He has gone to live in Heaven,
And his form is lost to view.
Oh! dear father how we loved you,
OH how hard to give you up;
But the Angel came down for him,
| And removed him from our flock.
We cannot tell next who may fall,
Beneath the chastning rod,
One must be first but let Is all,
| Prepare to meet our God.
Friends may think we'll soon forge
him,
And our wounded hearts be healed
But they little know the sorrow,
That's within our hearts concealed
His we'll remembered footsteps,
We're listning for in vain.
And our eyes grow dim with watching
And our hearts are sad with pain.
Dear father, you will never be forgot
4 ten,
Never shall your memory fade;
Sweetest thoughts will ever linger,
Round the grave where you are laid
No words will ever be so sweet.
As the words he used to say,
No hour will ever be so sad,
AS the hour he passed away
, A father more patient or more good
. Never lived beneath the sun;
We see his life without fault,
We do not know of one.
Farewell, dear father, a long farewell
Thou hast left us here to weep
The grief we feel no tongue can tell,
Sleep, dearest father, sleep.
Written by his children,

REBELS AT TORRE0N

= Il
REBELS AT T0RRE ON
Ell Paso, Texas, May 49, Reb-
Is in Juarez were demoralized
,ver reports of Sundays fighting
lround Conejos. Twenty men of
he Juarez garrison deserted and
anne to the American side, and
t is believed another defeat oil
Orozco's men would result in
wholesale assertions.
Orozco is making what is be-
lieved to be his last stand at Rel
ano. Fighting is reported to|
have been resumed at daylight
with the rebels fighting stubborn
ly to check the Federals.
Defeated and driven back from
his advance on Torreon after a
12-hour battle during which more
than 500 were killed and wound
ed on both sides, Gen. Orozco
established rebel headquarters at
Rellano and will await the arrival
of reiuforcements before making
another move against the FEEDER
ais.
A general order summoning all
revolutionists to mobilize at Rel
lano has been issued by the rebel
leaders. Rebels left dead and
wounded on field. The fighting
on the plains between Conejos
and Yermo was the most severe
of the war. Gen. Trucy ALBERT.
the Federal comma nder, was shot
in the foot. The rebels abandon
ed the field, leaving their dead
and wounded behind, and also
lost 10 cannon and much ammuni-
ton in their flight. After the
engagement the field was strewn
with the bodies of the dead and
dying.
TWO GENERALS MISSING.
Two rebel generals were miss
ing early today. Generals
Campo and Artugumendo were
sent to the east to flank the
Federals, but were outgeneraled
and at a late hour last night had
not yet joined the main COM
mand. The retcls abandoned
their positions at 3 o'clock, and
it is believed Gamma Artugumedo
may have been captured.
General Orozco admitted his
defeat last night, claiming that
the superior artillery of the
Federals was responsible. He
claimed, however, that with re-
Inducements he would be able to
regain his lost ground.
Reports from the Federal camp
indicate that the fight may be
renewed at any hour. General
Teller is said to have been sent
eastward to flank the rebels, and
General Huerta, who is in COM
mand, claims that he has sue
ceeded completely in his move
ment and that the rebels are sur
rounded and all re treat is cut off
The Federals have not succeed
ed, however, in closing the road
to Escalon, the rebel base, anC
it is expected Orozco will en-
deavor to reach there for a final
stand. Notifications have beer
thrown up and a determined re-
sistance could be made by the
revolutionists. General Huerta,
the Federal commander, gives
credit fer the victory to his
artillery.
The artillery fire was superb, y
he declared. I'VE captured from
the enemy 10 cannon, wagons
with many hand bombs and
dynamite. The flight toward
the north, where part of my
men executed a movement which
nearly annihilated them. Those
