But we hope to meet our loved one
On that bright and happy shore.
Lonely the house, and sad the hours
Since our dear one has gone;
But, oh! A brighter home than ours,
In heaven is now her own.
But we have lost>our darling baby;
She has bid US all adieu;
She has gone to live in heaven,
And her form is lost to view.
Oh! That dear one, how we loved her!
Oh! How hard to give her up;
But an angel came down for her,
And removed her from our home.

DEATH OF LITTLE ANNIEBELL
HERNDON.

The little daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
H. G.. Herndon died Sunday afternoon,
October 3rd. She was two years and
seven months old and had been sick
only three days before death came.
Her remains we're laid to rest Monday
afternoon at Spring Branch church.
She was loved by all who knew her,
and she leaves a brother, father and
mother to mourn her death, besides
a host of relatives and friends. She
was small, but she will be missed in
her community. She was always ready
to smile at anyone; she was so pleas
ing and loving a little girl. Her little
voice and footsteps are so vacant at
home
Precious darling, she has left US;
Left us, yes, forever more; :.
