Just as we were writing the last item
of news this week, word reached us
over the telephone of the sudden and
very unexpected death OF j. Il. Carter
resident of Union Valley neighbor
hood. ] think / will be safe in saying
that the death of this good man ut thil
time will bring sorrow and regret to the
hearts OF his friends that are numbered
by the hundreds, having lived in Jas
per County practically all his life. W.
will not attempt to say this morning
what the loss of this husband, father
brother, citizen and christian mar
means to MS all, but cannot refrain
from quoting o few verses from the per
of James Whitcomb Riley, which W,
are unable to dispel from mind thi
morning us we think of the passing
away of Brother Carter.
We cannot say, and we will not say
That he is dead-he is jus, away.
With CHEEKY smile, and wave o
the hand,
He has wandered into an unknown lant
And left us dreaming how very fai
1t needs must be since he linger
there.
And you-oh, you-who the wildes
yearn
For the old-time step and the gla'
return
Think of him living on as dear
In the love of there, as the love of here
Mild and gentle as he was brave,
When the sweetest love of his life h
gave
TO simpler things-where the violet
grew
Pure as the Heavens they are lillened ia
