IN MEMORIAM.
Our city is pained and saddened
by the sudden and untimely death of
one of our fairest and sweetest
young ladles, Mrs. Bruce Sangster,
daughter of .Mr, and Mrs. Aaron
‘ Touchtone, who was a bride of only
five or six weeks. She was united
In the holy bonds of matrimony to
Mr. Bruce Sangster, of Dowling, Ga.,
on March 8th, 1908, Rev. L. R. Chris
tie officiating, and moved at once to
Medulla, Fla. where she died of
hemorrhagic fever, April 20th, 1908.
All wag done for her that human
hands and human hearts could do,
but “My beloved is gone down into
His garden to gather lilies,“ and
this being one of the sweetest and
fairest, it was transplanted by the
Master's hand to bloom In the gar
dens of ParadLe. She was convert
ed to Christ and united to the Mis
sionary, Baptist church at New Beth
el in iuly, 1905, and lived a beautiful,
consistent Christian life to the day
of her s death. It was the writer’:
happy privilege to lead her to Christ
and I have been her pastor ever
since and can truly say she was "A
child of God.” She was a good daugh
ter a true sister and a faithful friend.
She was devoted to her family, true
to be** friends and faithful to her
i.ord. Many times have I seen her
face radiant with glory, and In r cup
of Joy run over as she rejoiced Ui
God, her Saviour. There was a halo
of sweetness and purity about her
| which utterly excluded worldliness.
| and she was “preserved blameless
unto the coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ," when he called her redeem
ed. blood-washed spirit to dwell with
Him in afcftnsJons of bliss.
Our heart* go out in deepest ten-
derest sympathy to the poor father
and mother, and to the broken-heart-
f ed husband and to those dear broth-

“Precious In the sight of the I>ord Is
the doath of his saiTits.” We laid her
to rest In the Valdosta cemetery and
her grave was literally covered with
flowers. “Blessed are the dead which
die In the Lord from henceforth:
Yen. sayeth the Spirit, that the;/
may rest from their labors; and
their works do follow them.” Rev.
14:13.
Yes. she Is gone from us. Her beau

Is not dead. Can love die? Can

But the scent of the roses will hang

She Is go-no from our midst but

which breathes upon a hank of vio-
