The death angel entered the home
of Mr. and Mrs. M. L.. Barret on
Sunday night, January 18th, 1918,
and claimed for its victim their son,
Mr.. Arthur Barrett, age 80 years.
Arthur had been sick only few
days with pneumonia fever and was
thought to be getting all right, but
he passed away. The community
sustained great loss, vacancy that
will be hard to fill. Arthur no longer
shares with US in sorrowing for the
harvest by and by but has gone to
Him leaving his ripened sheaves there
to sing the glory and praise around
the throne of Him whose reflected
beauty shone in his life of devotion
in his service. Arthur was meant
for the better world and the Master
is calling us in this dispensation of
His providence to come while apart
with Him and learn the lesson set
for us in his life so full of good deeds
so faithful to every trust. He leaves
father, mother and three brothers
besides host of relatives and friends
to mourn his death.
