DEATH OF A LITTLE CHILD.
Little C. "W. Long, son of Mr. and Mrs.
C. W. Long, died last Sunday morning at
their homo in Atlanta. It was sick only a
few hours with something like congestion
of the brain. It was sixteen months old,
and had never been sick until the end
came. It was just a little rosebud and the
Lord taken it just as soon as it was a flow
er. It is hard, oh, so hard, as it was our
precious little grand child, and it don't
seem as we can recognize its sad death.
The father and mother have my deepest
sympathy in their sad and lonely home.
It was brought here and taken to Long
Cano for its last resting place. It is gone
but never will be forgotten, as we will cer
tainly remember to decorate its little
grave with llowers. Grandmother.
Mr. and Mrs. Isom Lewis' baby died
