In loving rcmcnibnuico of Mrs. Mary

lUt}-sixth rear Of her age. On tlie
ipornlng of the same dav she died she
.called tier loved ones lo her be.Llde.
bade each grtrtdbje, and said she hatrd
to leave them, but if it wa* God’s will
she "as willing to go. She never mur
mured to the last, though her suffer
ing* werii great. Truly there was no
*ting in death, nor victory In tlie grave
From early childhood to the la*t hour
her life wm beautiful, she was so gen
tie a id faithful in the discharge of ev
ery duty. And In the grent sorrow
that has fallen /in that home there is
the comfort, timt her pure iimn/irtal
*f>irit w ill hbver like a guardian angel
around her loved one* until they shall
meet again, ’•nit "t flb’er to sever.”
Mrs. Hutto bad been a Consistent
member of the Salem Methodist church
for thirty-live year* and died as she
had lived, a Christian. The funeral
service* were conducted by the Rev.
Wright, who spoke in tender and
touching words of the life and charac
ter of Hie beloved dead. She was laid
to rest In tlie Halepi burying ground*
to await the resurrection of the faithful
and Just. May the God of all Grace
comfort the aged and bereaved husband
and the dear children whose,,home haa
been left so desolate, for “wha-fs home
without a mother?” And may they he
able to lock up through their tears and
say God know s be*>t, 1’hy will be done
Not brighter the, lustre or flash of the
gems
That jewel an Emperor’* crown,'
The coronet waiting to eirrle her brow,
'At that sound of the Master’s w ell done.
Not grander the rays of tho moth-

As It hslis the beautiful day.
The welcome that shone frclh the
Kummersky
And flashed in Us golden ray.
Not sweeter tlie breath of the soft
blooming rose.
Nor the fragrance of Bahylou’s bower;.
The incense wafted by angoUe hands
To the couch of that dying mother.
Not richer the strains of KoNan harp,
