Whereas our heavenly leather in his infinite love and wisdom has soon lit to remove bv death from our community Mi?;s Leila and little Carrie Baker and taken them to be with him in heaven above, therefore be it resolved, First, That we bow reverently to tho will of him who doeth all thing well. Second, That by their death we have lost two cheerful frionds although we are comforted with the thought that our loss is their eternal gain. Third, We extend our sympathies to the bereaved family and pray Clod's richest blessings upon them. Miss Leila and little Carrie were gentle, sweet and kind to all and tho' I heir earthly pilgrimage was short they had scores of friends and lovcdones I or whom they will anxiously wait to greet in heaven. I wo precious girls from ns are gone, Two voices we loved are still, Their places arc vacant in theii homes Which never can be filled. \\ hat happy hours we once enjoyed, ITow sweet their memory still; But they have left an aching void This world can never fill. Tis hard lo break the tender chord When love has bound it to the lioarl 'Tis hard, so hard to speak the word Must we forever part. Sleep on dear girls, And take your rest; God called you home And thought it best. Irene Moore. Alma -Connelly. REV. B. M. GRIER DEAD.
