MISS MAY DILLON

hS" ol Oilc ucpdFUufo rom this life of Miss May Dillon IS a shock to the entire commu nlty and her many friends every where.
 She was borne at Beirne. Ar. kansas, November 9, 1884, and and died at home, near Prescott. Arkansas, April 15, 1913. She is survived by her mother, five sis ters and a brother, besides host ot relatives and friends to mourn her loss.
 Her illness was of long dura. tlon, and, while she realized the awful danger of the affiiction. she seemed to have no fear, and remained cheerful and plesant, Only a few days before death did she believe the end was near, and all that loving hands and tender hearts could do was of no avail
 While her mind would not rest. during her illness, she made many mementoes, which are highly prized and will be kept as tokens of love and memory by relatives and loved ones.
 The writer has known her slnce early in life. As student in school she was earnest and dili. gent - exceptionally quick to learn as teacher she success fnlly instituted the impress of her spirit and the moulding in- huence of her noble Christian life. In estimating her character 1t will not be forgotten that she possessed eminently practical tai enls. She had splendid business ab'l tY and manifested it to great advantage in life.
 In conversation, to her per- sonal and genial manner, she added a clearness of statement, a force of reasoning, a purity of diction, a wealth of learning and a splendor of imagination. She possessed an especial love for music-in her voice was melody and inspiration to all whom she entertained.
 In April, 1905, she obeyed the gospel and was baptized (by Bro. Arnold) in the Christian faith, and has ever remained, steadily cherishing througnlife the car dinal principles of faith and piety. A few hours before death she smiled and spoke of dying in the Christian faith.
 To those who knew her she was most cheerful, gentle, genial, just and devout, as dearly beloved for her goodness as she was ven erated for her greatness. Her almost unbounded Lersonal infu- ence over the community will never be forgotten. Behold I am Thy servant. l desire not to live unto myself, but unto Thee. " Mother, sisters, brothers, dear,
 In whose hearts have met Two streams of love so deep and
 clear,
 To cheer her dropping spirits
 yet.
 When twilight softly folded
 Her curtain round thee, dear, My heart communion held
 With one so far, yet so near. Now, sweetheart, 1 think of
 thee,
 The one held most dear, And sweet memories come to
 Of days when you were alway S
 near"
