She was foi >uried on Saturday at Salem Luth- de ;ran church, on Hollow creek. an No one can explain why such a ac roung girl, as was Miss Taylor, should >e called from this life at eighteen. She had not a thought that was not a gentle one, not one that did not hold e(^ til the world in the arms of its kind- j1Q mess. She was the light of the eyes on if a great company of relatives and ne riends, and the light has now gone ^ mt. To them she was what the sun- wl hine is to the world, and this eclipse en o them brings v both darkness and ? Ma. th Her funeral was pathetic beyond af1 ixpression, for not one, as the last ^e; pod-byes were said, but that felt that ^ t loss had been sustained for which an here is no compensation. hfay time bring its resignation, and i uay the shores of eternity that re- ia< leives her soul, surround it with ever- SO: sating sunshine and flowers.
