common all over Maine, is held by ma.

the raccoon. Biologists ridicule this
belief; nevertheless many half wild
cats in Maine have the typical raccoon
tail with short forelegs, pointed snout
and long hair.

Clara Nell Finch was born Dec 8,
1911, died March IA, 1917; age five
years, three months and four days.
She leaves broken-hearted mother,
father and two dear little sisters and
a host Of relatives and friends to
mourn her death.
Little Nell was the baby child of
Mr.. and Mrs. J. 0. Finch, and a
granddaughter of Uncle Houston
Finch who preceded her to the grave
about year ago.
1t seems strange that little Nell
should be the first to be taken from
Uncle Houston's large family of chill

children, which numbered about 33,

saw fit to pluck this rose from earth
to help decorate heaven.
To know Nell WIS to love her. God
alone knows how we miss her, but
we know she is safe from all the
pangs and heart-aches of this world.
To the bereaved family we would
say, sorrow not for we know she has
gone to live with Jesus, and is one
of heavens brightest angels.

Obituary.

Henry D. Atkison was born Marcl
IA, 1884, became a member of tn
church of Christ about the year 1851
He vas married to Sallie Cook Nov
20, 1856, and departed this life Jul!
10, 1917. He lived 83 years, foul
months and five days.
His wife and seven children pre-
ceded him to the grave. He leaves
one son, Ed Atkison, of Dresden
and one daughter, Mrs. Felix Meek
of Martin, to mourn his death.
Uncle Henry, having united with
the church in early life, was an ac-
tive, useful member until death
called him from long life of pa
tent toll to the reward that awaits
the faithful in Christ.
He was ever loyal citizen, a
kind, loving husband and father.
His great sufferings during his last
days on earth were borne with Chris
tan patience and fortitude, and his
mind dwelt continually upon the
hope of eternal life.
The esteem in which he was held
in his community was attested by
the large concourse of sorrowing rel
atives and friends who attended his
funeral, which was conducted by Ell
der Fred Chunn, Of the Church Of
Christ. Interment took place at
West Union cemetery. The remains
were attended by an escort of Free
Masons, who administered the last
rites of that order, of which the de-
ceased was a member of long stand
ing.
We would say to the bereaved son
and his faithful wife, who ministered,
so increasingly to his every comfort
in his last days: We know there is a
vacancy in your hearts and home;
you will sadly miss his kindly face
and his words of fatherly advice,
but thanks be to God, who giveth us
the victory through Jesus Christ, our
Lord, you will not mourn as those
who have no hope.
We can think of Uncle Henry's
departure as Of the grand old apos-
tie of old-he has fought a good
fight. kept the faith, finished his
course and was prepared to lay down
the cross and receive crown. May
the Lord direct the way of each Of
his loved ones and also all christians
everywhere, that wemay, as he did,
approach with confidence the dark
river of death, having the assurance
that the rod and staff of our Lord
will comfort us at all times. May |
we all stand victorious and united
in that great day, when God, our
Father, shall wipe all tears from our
eyes.-Mrs. R, G. Underwood, Win
terville, Miss.
