SAD DEATH OF YOUNG LADY NEAR DRAYTON Kiss Graver Ms Drayton, Ga., July- 15.—On Friday morning the ia inst, Miss Grover, the daughter .of Mr, A. Wells, passed into that, beautiful realm beyond after a short illness. The immediate cause of <her death was pneumoniu. Death is always sad, but for one to die just-enteririg.intothe morning of life—just passing the 18th mile post along lifes journey—just when life is happiest, sunniest, when all is promises of radiant sunshine— it deepens the sadness and ititensi-' fies the grief. Miss Grovers demise is mourned by a father and large family of brothers and sisters, and lamented by numberless friends. She was a family favorite, and, while the torch of the burning fever scorched her brow, 'fathers loving hands, brothers and sisters alike, kindly and tenderly, ministered, to her every want. Sad indeed, but ‘’death loveth a shining mark,” God directeth all things for the best, and He whose mercy is as great as the Heavens are high above the earth, and who 1 removeth our sins from us as far as the east is from the tyest, is too wise too err.
