First, several years ago, a son, Mtinnerlyn.and her husband, were taken, I almost without warning, and I within a lew hours of each other. Then a lew years later, a daughter, Mrs. Nettie ('arson, died, suddenly. Then, about three months ago, another daughter, Miss Clem, was taken from her, followed in a few days by the unexpected death of asi-ter living near her? Mrs. \V. It. Mobley. And now! Mrs. Mobley herself is dead ; has! been taken "home"?where there is no more trouble and sorrow, and where the weary and heavy laden are at rest, ller death was not unexpected. It has long been known that, though she was able to be up, she could not be spared a great while longer?that her i ? _ i- i % me nun}: ny a very slender eor?l that whm liable to break at any time. She herself fully realized her condition, and was prepared to no whenever the Master might call. .Just before her daughter died she told her that they would not be parted long. And when she took the the last sad farewell of her?the farewell of the living to the dead?she said, "Goodbye, sweet one; I am coming soon." She took worse Sunday 2nd., and though she had every care that attentive physicians and loving, tender daughters could give her. she gradually sank until Friday evening when, .just alter the sun had gone down, she breathed her last, and her spirit went to the| (ioil who gave it. A Iter the toil and trouble, There comes a day of rest; After the weary conflict. Peace on the Savior's breast ; After the care and sorrow. The glory of light ami love; After the wilderness journey. The Father's bright home above. After the pain and sickness, The tears are all wiped away; After the (lowers are gathered, No more of cart If* decay; After the deep heart sorrow, The glory of light and love; After the daily dosses, A glorious crown of love. .Mis.
