"A Tribute of Love"

Rehoboth community was shocked
to hear of the tragic and deplorable
death Of little Sallie, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. P. Culbreath,
which occurred Tuesday evening of
last week. Dec. 4th.
Bright and happy the children
were playing in the hall, loaded
shotgun which was in corner fell
and discharged, the load entering
her heart.
The little farm was laid to rest
in Rehoboth Cemetery Wednesday
afternoon.
We deeply sympathize with the
family in this sad bereavement.
Sallie was bright little sunbeam
and loved to attend Sunday School.
Though not quite six years old, Of
ten asked her mother questions of
God and Heaven, of Angels and
death.
An Angel plucked the beautiful
little wee-bud, ere it was bllghted
by the chilling winds of sin, suffer.

Her little place is vacant, the
little voice is still yet, how consollng'
"There is no death, an Angel form
Walks Ger the earth with silent tread
He bears our best loved ones away;
And then we call them dead.
He leaves our hearts all desolate;
He plucks our fairest sweetest flowers,
Transplanted into bless, they now
Adorn immortal bower.
Where, e'er he sees smile too bright
Or heart-too pure for taint and vice
He bears it to that is world of light,
To dwell in Parade.
