This short suntoiteo was the last one UUCIrod by little Henry Levitt, that dutiful iittlo son of Mr. ami Mrs. B. P. I.ovitt, whose death wits mentioned in die (Lvatm-u two weeks ago. Henry was in his eleventh year and, though young as ho was, had lived long enough to learn that there was trite pjuitstlrn in doing good Few hoys, of Henry's age, placed a higher estimate than hu did on obedience anil parents’ love,, Never did his gentle face shine hijghtut, or his little heart appear iiv.ire content- i d, than when he «a>; fulfilling some mission of ob..'di*:'iivvi‘ia>- his parents, was a good-hoy; none of his school mates or other associates could say otherwise;, no one who knew him, the. young or Lite old, who did not love him, How strange it is lo lecblo man, how bard it is for hint to understand why it is that the hopes of- fond par ents should ho thus blasted ! We know that death rides upon every passing breeze, and lurks in every (lower, but just why tho (lower of the family should lie taken our vision is loo dim to seo 1 Wc learn from His Word that when God Conjes lo gather up IJis jewels lie always takes tho brightest and host first. Doubtless dear little Henry, though suffering intensely, was able to look beyond his. pains and long to fly away. Henry had always manifested a very strong lovo for his parents ami, if there was a thorn in his dying pillow it was the thought of leaving them; bill when his departure was near at hand he could raise his arms, weak and trembling as they w.ire, placo them around his mother's neck (as if to dry her tears) and say, “I want to go.” What a grand sentence! What a noble utterance was little Henry’s last! 11c died like hu lived—in tho delight of obedience, When he came lo tho dark and surging waters of tho Jordan of death and he was called upon to bill adieu to those whom ho knew and loved, little Hen ry could rise superior to these things and witli his last breath exclaimed: “I want to go.” This is a victory, indeed. Let tis nil, young and old, learn a lesson from this noble hoy. Only elven years whh lie spared to dwell among us; yet, short ns that seems, it was long enough for him to tench us bow to live—aye, more, to show ns lip tv to die. Grieve not, parents, for your dar ling son; the plnue which Christ went to prepare ,wivs ready to receive him; his mniinion was completed and ready for its occupant, Little Henry did not cross the eolu stream of death alone, for Chfist said “If I go and prepare n place for you i will come again and receive you unto myself l,lint where I am there ye may ho also." No wonder ho could say “I want to go.” 1 wmtdur If father mid mother will know riiclr hiiii's lo that, plaue uf sweet joj, I womlor If brother aud hIhIch will go To Unit homo where naught nan annoy. j. j. s.
