Jan. 10, 1912. His Illness lasted
about TOUR weeks. and the sand IN

he has taken his leave that he Is
planting his footprints on that YES

bark thereon into the harbor OF
safety So the children and friends
of the old father need not she'd
any tears OF sadness for he said.
Oh how glad he was of the ex-
change changing a life OF utter
disappointment to an endless eter-

hand OF God where moth nor rust
doth not corrupt nor thieves break
through and steal.
SO remember, dear children. that
If you expect to sec the old father
