ACME FURNITURE CO.
A STRICKEN FAMILY.
The Ifuixl of Death Taken Another Child
Front Mr. and Mm. W. II. Mercer.
I)**ath has ai'aiii entered the home
of Mr and Mrs Vv Ji Mercer, ol Uiit j
city, and removed forever little I
Joseph B , their only remainintr
cherub in whom was centered .11
their love, tneir pride, their j >v ai d
their hope, since from the ravages of
disease and death it whs all that was
left them to lavish their undivided
affections upon, and with his prattle
and smile brin* sunlight to the
hearts which have often before been
clouded with sorrow. Surely their
cup of grief is full to overflowing!
Only a short time ago Mr. and Mrs
Mercer suffered the loi^s of their litiie
Homer and almost ere the first great
pang was over, another blow full*
heavily upon them, inflicting a wound
for which there is no healing lotion
and only the roiling years may bring
a balm to soothe its pain. Seven of
this devoted family now are gone out
into the great unknown beyond, ana
it is not a matter for wonder that the
hearts of the remaining members ar.
crushed and broken—broken, yet live
on to endure the pain which mem
ories of a happy past, wherein their
once cherished hopes lie buried, must
ever bring to them.
Jcseph B. was just five years old,and
was a very bright, sweet child. He
had been ill about two months with a
complication of diseases, but at
times he appeared to be so much bet-
! ter that strong hopes were entertained.
: for his recovery. Just before he died
i lie was unusually bright, and asked
for a comb that he might comb his
hair remarking about the same time
that he would like to have some wings
so ihst he could go to the angels, or
words to that effect. But the Reaper
had marked him for the harvest, and
at 10:30 o’clock Thursday night the
little fellow breathed his last. The
body was embalmed and taken to
King’s Mountain where on Sunday it
was placed beside the little brother
who went on a short time before.
One particularly sad and pathetic
feature connected with this death, as
with that of the other child, is th%t
the father, Mr. Mercer, is away in
the far west and could not see his
children before they died.
The hearts of our entire commun
ity go out in deepest sympathy for
this stricken family.
