CBITUARY.
Written in loving memory of lit
tle Vi rdo Franklin Hunt, infant
son of Mr. and Mrs. H lL Hunt,
who died Jan. 3, 1908. H,e was 2
years and four months old.
In the early hours of the night,
while the great world was quiet,
the death angel crossed the thresh
old oi bis home and bore little Ver
do’s sweet spirit away.
He was a bright and sunny child
even in all his suffering he never
complained but vary little.
His homo is left sad and lonely,
but we can look through our tears
and say, “Thy will be done,” not
ours.
He leaves a heart-broken mother
and father and ora? little brother
to mourn bis loss.
Be comfi rted, dear ones, God
knows best und will do what is
right. Your loss is His gain, Ho
still lives far above the cures of
this life and is beckoning you to
come. May (tod bless and comfort
you in your bereavement.
We loved him, yes' \v< loved him,
But Jesus loved him more;
And He has gently called him
To yonder shining shore.
The golden gates were opened.
And Jesus’ voice said, “Come.”
And then our darling left us,
g or his heavenly home.
He is gone but not forgotten;
Never will his memory fade,
Sweetest thoughts shall ever linger
Bound the grave where he is laid.
It was hard to part with him,
Ob. so sad to see him die;
But we will try to meet aim
Some sweet day up in the sky.
A Bela live.
Messrs. Fields and Moore, two of
Hampton’s prominent citizens,
