LITTLE ALLEN ADAIR-
Resolutions of Woman’s Home Mis
sion Society.
On the 23d of February, 1899,
there came into the family of Mr.
and Mrs. J. P. Adair, a beautiful
baby, little Allen Viticent, to
brighten their home and gladden
their hearts. He lived long e.lough
to become very dear to the hearts
in the home circle. On the 18th
of April, 1900, God took him to
Himself.
His name was upon the baby
roll of the Woman’s Home Mission
Society, thus linking his little life
to the great missionary movement,
so dear to the Savior’s heart.
Be it resolved therefore by the
Woman’s Home Mission Society,
of which he was a member.
1 st. That while we mourn his
taking away, we are grateful to
God for his little life, so full of in
nocence and love.
2d. That we bow* in humble sub
mission to the divine providence,
knowing that He doeth all things
well. We know not but that little
Allen, while waiting for the home
coming of the loved ones of earth,
in a holier, brighter clime, is ful
filling a mission of mercy and love,
or doing some service that angels
cannot do.
3d. That we heartily sympathize
with the bereaved father and moth
er, and pray upon them the richest
benedictions of our heavenly Fath
er.
4th. That these resolutions be
published and spread upon our
minutes and a copy be sent to the
amily. Mrs. W. R. Branham.
