Obituary Mrs. Clara Knox.

Only a river between us,
Parting our dear ones awhile;
Only a veil that divides US
hiding the light of their smile:
Only a sigh and a struggle, .
Only a moment of pain
Then, mid the SplendorS OF Eden,
We shall behold them again.
Only a place that is vacant
When to our Savior we bend;
Only a strain that is missing.
When our devOtiOnS we blend
Only a voice and a foOt-Step.
Only a clasp of the hand.
Drawing US onward and upward,
Home to the beautiful land.

is the property OF Spartanburg. in the
Carolina association. The young pitcher
does not care to come to Atlanta for
some reason, and Manager Hemphill is
