The June Bride.
Come again the fair June bride,
With her father by her side;
Gracefully she moves along,
Eyed by all the eager throng,
Half-concealed in richest gauzeHear
the whispered "Oh's!'' and
<Ah's!"
Queenliness is in her style
As she travels down the aisle;
This is her eventful day;
Come what will or come what may,
This triumphant hour shall be
ni?i
uriunous m ner memory.
Conscious of their envy who
Turn to gaze from bench and pew,
She proceeds with splendid grace
Onward to the sacred place,
While her father, stout and gray,
Wishes he were far away.
See the bridesmaids, young and fair
Never was a scene so rare!
And her mother?ah, how proud,
What a splendid, stylish crowd!
Hear the organ's ii9ing toneShe
is coming to her own.
Glorious the fair June bride,
With her father at her side,
With her bridesmaids ranged about
And her mother, proud and stout;
? And the groom^-but who; wpl care?
This is all the bride's affair.

Always To Be Remembered.
Joseph Earl Shealy, of Little Mountain,
S. C., was born Sept. 13tb, 1SS5,
and departed this life April I6th, 1913,
making life on earth 27years, 7 months
and 3 days. He was a noble young
man having traits of character excelled
by i :w.
A good many years ago he joined the
Lutheran church and attended regular
or when his health would permit him.
Being somewhat a homely boy and in
early manhood suffered a serious affliction
that befell him he was unable to
do any work, also prevented from the
pleasures of going about and being in
society. In this solitude condition lie
was not widely known but in this way
hede\oted himself to his Lord and '
Master. He was a young man of a
loving disposition, a good brother, and
an obedient and faithfull son. He
oisiiKea trie ruae ana evil ways oi life
and in latebdays would shun people
that would adopt them, iu this way
he was especially known, by his immediate
associates. A young man of but
few words but plain and open with
what he had to say or do. He was very
fond of a friend and a friend to everybody
that wished his friendship.
Honesty seemed to be his chief aim in
life and he endeavored to live such
with his fellow man, leading a christian
life. His most crayed desire in
his life was his health which he was so
unfortunate as to loose never to regain.
Fate had crossed his path and life was
a dark and dreary road for liim without
the promise of a future.
He was afflicted six or seven years
\
ago receiving a severe hurt and having
a case of typhoid fever from which he
never fully recoverd but continually
grew worse.^With all the possible help
there seemed to be no relief, none of
any avail, and continued to linger in
this^hopeless state not seeing a well day
for these many years. In this despaired
condition lie would at times have hopes
of brighter days, but with this contiu-"
ual suffering which undoubtedly affectO/l
Uto wv> i *3 t? * 1~- * ? ?- ? ? il- " ? - ?
uiomiuu, lit: ufgau to miiiK mat wis
only relief was death. This being the
case he sought his own life, and it appears
that his mind was not clear when
he committed the rash a ct. There is one
surety that God will take care of us.
Hi9 last words written by him were
as follows: "In my own mind as you
will see my physical condition has ruu
me cr8zy. My life is a burden to me.
I hate to leave you good people, but I
must go. Please dont worry about i
me but rejoice in my departure. Hope- *
ing that we will meet again, Farewell,"
Earl. !
We know not what our path may be,
As yet by us untrod,.
But we trust our ail to thee, ii
Our Father and our God. jg
A face that we never more can see, ^
A voice that we loved is still, s<
A place vacant in our home, will be, tl
One that never can be filled. n
Will say in conclusion, to all of you
good people that went in search of
his body, that I thank you ever 90
much and will assure vou that I will 0
endeavor to show you my apprecia- a
tions. . Brother. 11
