wonderful.
She was the daughter of the late

real resting place, a place wherein to
grow strong for life's arduous duties
During her long suffering she calm

trust and confidence, a smile of hea-

She longed to remain with the dear
ones and yet without a murmer she
calmly let go of earthly things. The
world is better place because she

will be glad welcome to the heaven

flowers that surrounded her, not one
blossom SO sweet as her own dear

here, but she was fitted for a fairer
home, and SO the angels gently bore
her beyond the touch of pain where
flowers immortal bloom Love crown
ed her life on earth; those she best
loved. best knew her priceless worth.
