IN MEMORY OF RALPH KNOX.
Bright Young Boy Lost Life In Auto
Accident at Laurcns.

New Hope. April 17.-Special:
Many hearts in this community we're
made sad last Wednesday, the 18th
Instant, when news was received of
the sudden death Of Ralph Knox. the
1O-year-old son OF Mr.. and Mrs. Stiles
II. Knox, Of Laurcns, but formerly Of
Seneca.
Ralph was returning from school
with a number OF other children, rid
ing in an automobile. He was stand-
ing on the running board and when
nearing his home he attempted to
aligiht from the moving car, and was
thrown heavily against the paved
street, receiving injuries from which
he died two hours later without re-
gaining consciousness.
The car was driven by little boy
ii years old, and no blame Is attach
ed whatever to him for this deplora-
bic accident
The old adage that death loves Il
shining mark has been truly veri-
fled in the death OF this little boy.
lie was child Of unusual intelli-
gence. not only the pride and lido. OF
his parents, but a favOrite Of his rela-
tives and friends as we'll Ralph was
always happy when in school, and
pore the distinction Of being one OF
the leaders OF his class, his name al
ways appearing on the honor roll.
His body was brought to New Hope
Thursday afternoon, and after appro-
pirate funeral services, conducted by
Rev. II. NJ. Galphin, OF Seneca, the
remains were tcndcrly laid to rest in
the New Hope cemetery, in the pres
ence OF Il large crowd Of relatives and
friends.
Many and beautiful were the flow
ers placed upon his grave. Seven
little boys froln Seneca, his former
playmates. were honorary pail bear
ers, each carrying a bunch Of flowers.
The sympathies OF the entire COM
munity go out to the father and mo-
thcr and TWO little sisters in this sad
bereavement.
Safe in the arms Of Jesus,
Sale from curroding care,
Sale from the worlds temptation,
Sin cannot harm him there.
Free from all blight and sorrow,
Free from trials and fears;
Free from troubles and anguish,
Happy throughout endless years
