January 4, 1905. In Heaoriam. The Columbia Daily Record, of December 24, 1887, contained the following: To P. J. Rucker. Dear Peter: Having heard that yon have lately be6n pnt in possession of a precious treasure?a daughter fair?I herewith extend my congratulations and ask you to please accept the following lines, composed by myself, in commemoration of the auspicious event: In life's tempestuous journey There're sunlit days and clouds? Some fraught with bitter sorrows, Some with pleasure that make proud; But the brightest and most beautiful, Tliat brings the most delight, Is that on which your tiny bud First opened to the light. 'Twas then you felt life's value. With its pleasures and its cares: In your mind you blazed your pathway To be trod in after years. You thought that young and tender bud, First of the parent tree. Before it came to be a flower Would its little troubles see. You thought on you for weal or woe Its future would depend. As, liand in hand, yon walked along Life's pathway to the end. And so it is?you're now a guide. Father, protector, friend. And 'tis for vou at every step A helping hand to lend. I Foster your precious little charge With tender, nurturing care: God gave it and intends for you It in His name to lear. Point it to Christ, and toicli it truths. To think of every hour. And this tiny bud will pleasure give When it grows to be a flower. J. K. Davis. Lexington, March 27, 1S87. . . The above was written 011 the birth of Miss Jemima J. Pucker, whose death occurred a few days ago, and her father, P. J. Rucker, has written the following in her remembrance: Christmas has come, but daughter is not here. She has gone to Him whose birth is marked by the Christmas festivities. Many friends have tried to comfort me. I thank them and the doctors who foughc her disease to the last. God bless the doctors and the nurses of the Columbia hospital for their kindness to my daughter. Whatever He gives me, a portion shall go ro the hospital. Heaven will bless everyI one that helps tlie sick. At midnight the Bridegroom came. She said: "I am ready. I have accepted my Lord Jesus. Papa, I am your baby, but don't weep for me. How liappy I am! Ring the bell and call the girls, I want to talk to them.'' When the matron and nurses gathered arouud 1 the bed, with a clear mind she told them of heaven. She thanked them for all they had done for her. They could only answer her with tears. The world nor friends could not comfort me. but her dying words did. Notice.
