happy re-union with loved ones,
gone before.
A visit from the miniatm- n fnw
days before her death was refresh
ing to her soul, for she seemed to
drink ot tho very fountain of God's
devine love and mercy, and spoke
of death with calmness. The future
was nil bright, for she had noth
ing to fear and would gladly wcl
como the summons to come to "en
ter into the joys of thy Lord." In
her last hours she was surrounded
by her daughters and family ami
her most intimate fi lends who did
everything that loving hearts could
do, she passed peacefully away.
Now sho is gone; her absence will
bo deeply felt, especially in tho
families of her daughters. The si
lent voice and vacant chair of dear
mother will remind tho sorrowing
ones of the absent one. who has
gone from them to "realms of eter
nal bliss." In the midst of tears
tho Bighing heart asked "shall era
wo meet again?" Words flashing
from tho soul exclaims;
"Wien this fleeting life has fled,
With joy In Hoavon to greettlico
Where no faiewell tear is shed,"
