In Memory

Oscar Edward Keith departed
this life Oct. ~, 1915, aged 30
years and months. lie was born
in Wayne county, No., but greater
part of his life was spent in Union
county, Ill. lle was always a most
obedIent son, aud from an early
age was a great help and comfort
to bis parents. Always bright aud
CHEEKY, he made friends with every
one. His death was a great shock,
not only TO his immediate family
but to the entire county. lie was
perhaps better known over the
county than any other man Of his
age. Truly, "He is not dead, who
lives in hearts he leaves behind"
Oh! the parting was indeed bitter
for 1t seemeth hard that he should
be called while IN the full strength
of glorious young manhood, a0d
our sorrow is almost more than VIC
can bear. But we try to bow to
His supreme will and say, "Lord
thy will be DONE" for we know all
his troubles are now over and he
awaits US there, where cometh no
sorrow nor pain.
"Earth is better, having known
thee,
And heaven is sweeter for thy
sake"
His loving sister,
Blanche.
