On the morning of September 19th sit J o'clock, at tho residence of Mrs Rob erl Hellams, Miss Beatrice Yeargln died of consumption. There novor was u clearer case of beautiful self-sacrifice than this ?she literally gave herself for others. At eighteen she was left alone the solo Support of a widowed mothor and four children. Out from girl hood's-happy oare-free state, she stepped into the place of father and sister and became supporter, counsellor, educator doffed girlhood with its buoyant hopes in one day and donned the robes of mourning and the crushing responsible of a family. With Christian fortitude and noble solf-forgotfulnoss, sho beeamo all that father had boon. For six years sho taught in tho public, schools, for five she was organist at tho Methodist church. Duty was her watchword -no sacrifice was too groat, no task too great if homo or loved ones or ohuroh or school needed a service. Always hopeful .s:, i burled her own ambition that from ks death might arise greater things for those she loved and who wore dependent upon her. A woman is greater than anv story one may have to toll of nor greater than any of fdfo's more happenings So was sho?greater in soul, greater in good works than anything I could say. Her faith was clear and unwav ering, she could not understand why some things were permitted to be. She never dared to question ? accepting and meeting every issue and every con dition in life simply ofnelontlv with a calm sturdlnoss of character that made the seemingly impossible possible for her. At rare intervals when one who knew her best of all caught gllmpsos of the innermost, Holy of HoHessbo knew the wonderful courage came from the wondrous beauty of soul. Noithor disappointment, nor trouble, nor obsta cles could daunt hoc. Sho mot death with tho same courage and patience with which she had mot tho issues of lifo. Loving hands draped tho organ which had so long responded to her touch, tender lingers twined tho choir rail with black and white, beautiful dowel's- lit emblems of the fragrance of her life. Weeping friends, pastor, pupils and congregation wore oloqucnt of tho beauty of her life. "IV Yeargln is dead, but the memory of her beauti ful life remains with us to encourage us to nobler living and a purer faith. Sho has "entered through tho gates into the city." Tho abovo beautiful tribute to ono so fair and so lovely is from a devoted friend who knew her many virtues and especially tho devotion sho had shown In her short life to widowed mother, and orphanod brothers and sisters.
