eight months. Seldom has it
been our sad mission to announce
a death that brought more sor-
row to our heart than the death
of the little son Of CUR warm
personal friends, Mr.. and Mrs.
John M. Witt. Fully realizing
how much their lives were wrapt
up in the little life of their prec-
ious baby we feel and know the
anguish of heart of the fond par
ents that are so soon bereft Of
one of their greatest joys and
comforts. The sunshine of love
could not warm him to life, nor
the affection of parenthood be-
guile him from going. His
breath went out like the eXhala-
ton of a fragrant flower, and in
his stead is left only a holy and
beautiful memory-a memory
that will last and sanctify as
long as parental existence. This
beautiful baby life was so full of
promise. and hope and joy, that
when the messenger came from
the unseen land we could not

that Death is a hard master, and
that he would take from us for
all time our brightest and best.

To rise upon some fairer shNe;
And bright in heavens je veled crown

The sympathy of their hosts
of friends goes out to the dis

their deep grief.
A brief funeral service was
conducted at the grave by E der

Lovely floral offerings Of love
