IN MEMORIAM
In Loving memory of Miss Allora
Ford.
She entered Gcds Kingdom July
1-, She was about 29 years
of age her remains were buried aT
the family grave yard; She was
faithful until death ; died happy,
s he sang and shouted all the week
before God took her to his bosom.
It was sad tb give her up but God
doeth all tilings right. He is a
wondorous and mighty God; he
needed one more angel, so he call
ed Allora home, she said I am
ready to go.
Weop not dear ones for she is
much better off than she was here ;
you’ll all see her by and by if
you live faithful until God oalls
you home. Sometimes the an
nouncement is sudden, but it is
always a shock. Allora is gone ;
we will never see her again on
earth but by and by we will see
her in the Heavenly home.
She was left alone when small
without mother, father, brother
or sister ; She had neither of these
to mourn her loss ; we think that
she lias met her loving mother and
father in Hoaven where we all
long to be some happy day. But
who but the dear Lord of heaven
knows where the dear one is—but
Jesus /.nows : and he knows all our
s irrows on eartn and will count
our sorrows tears as stars in the
believing hearts,
We should always be prepared
for death is sure to come, xve know
not where nor when, bat Jesus i
knows and when he sees time it is
then our time so be ye therefore
ready. Sweeter thoughts will ever
linger around the grave where
Alora is la.'d.
“There is no death, the stars
go down’’
Onlv to rise on some fairer shore,
And added to the luster of
Heaven's bright crown,
Shine on forevermore
“There is a day of rest for every
dark and troubled honr, for God
will mark each surrounding dav
and number every falling tear,
heavens long age of bliss shall pay :
for all his children suffer herp.
Can any one say a word of kind
ness to sooth the lonely hearts.
May the God of peace he with
the loved ones forever.
By one who knew her, L. T.
