Resolutions of Coincidence and Respect

by Loyalty camp No. 2142, Ellenboro,

Mrs Carrie Mcpherson, who died
Sept oath, 1917.
She has answered the final sum-
mons. Her life work is done. Sc
renely she has passed to the final rest,
and while tender memories linger we
trust that the star that has gone away,
the light of whose going makes our
night. makes somewhere else a day

Whereas, God in His all-wise and
Divine providence has seen fit to in
wade our camp for the second time
and after lingering illness remove
by death our much esteemed Oracle,
Carrie Mcpherson, bringing to our
minds a realization of the truth that
the day and hour that any Of us may
be called to bid farewell to earth and
loved ones no one knoweth;
And whereas, By the death of our
NeighbOr, a true and faithful worker
one who was always willing to do
what she could for the welfare OF
the Camp, has gone to that home new
er to return,
Therefore, be it Resolved, That the
members of Loyalty camp No. 2142, eX-
tend to the bereaved husband and
relatives of the deceased, in the dark
and gloomy hour of their sorrow, their
heartfelt sympathy.
And be it Resolved, That the charter
be draped in morning for period OF
60 days and copy Of these resolu-
tons be sent to the bereaved husband
and copy be sent to the county paper
for publication and also a copy be
spread upon the records of the camp
as tribute to her memory.
Rest in peace the second one taken
Though we miss you from our roll

Then She Stuck in the Mud.
(Platteville News)


At 400 Saturday afternoon the Du-
buque Boat & Boiler works launched
the second of the submarine chasers
being built for the government. The
craft slid gracefully into the water
with big splash, but on account of
the shallow water one end of the boat
stuck in the mud on the bottom. This
was not considered a serious matter
and the big travelling crane with it's
chains and cable was called into serv-
ice to pull the boat out of the mud
The Dubuque Boat & Boiler works
expects to have the boat finished in
less than three weeks. The two boats
are to be finished here and delivered
to the government at New Orleans.
Mounts for guns have been attached
to each boat. The guns will be put
in place by the government after the
delivery of the boats

What are sorrows? Seeds from heaven
Falling on the heart.
Buds Of virtue pure and holy
Soon from them will start.
What are sorrows? Pearls of value
Resting in a shell;
Rough and hard the outer cover
Guards the treasures we'll.
What are sorrows? Little tokens
Of a Fathers love;
Coins of gold that pay the passage
To our home above.
Bud on earth and bloom in heaven.
Josephine Flesch, the youngest
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs Matt Flesch
Of Waterloo township, was born Jan.
Z, 1912 and died Sept. %, 1917, at the
age Of years, s months and Is days.
The Grim Reaper whose ruthless
scythe reaps the bearded grain at
breath, and the flowers that grow be-
tween, suddenly cut off the fair young
life that was the pride of the home.
After the dinner hour little Josie
left the house and in about fifteen
minutes her eldest sister, Lena, miss
ed her and went to call, but found it
in vain. So Lena fastened to the
barn and discovered her lying uncon-
sciOus under their pet horse that she
had always petted and played with.
Her cries brought her father and to-
gether they quickly carried the little
body to the house. The mother was
not present, as she was helping one
Of her neighbors. When the sad news
was carried to her over the telephone
the shock was almost more than she
could stand. The family can hardly
realize that the kind and loving little
one, with them only few minutes
ago, can never smile on them again.
1t is one of the mysterious happenings
that can never be explained. -
DR.. Doolittle and DR.. Fowler were
called and found the injuries to be
most serious. The skull was fractur-
ed, three ribs were broken, and there
were several cuts about the face and
head 1t was indeed a terrible affair,
and one that is bringing sadness and
gloom to the home.
Funeral services were held Monday
morning at 10 o'clock, Sept. "a, 1917,
in the st. Thomas church at POtOsi.
