Enjoys Visit. \
Locust Grove, Oct. 1, 1917.
Dear Friends and Schoolmates :
It has been a great pleasure for
me to visit old Georgia, and espe
cially Henry county.
Just about twenty years ago I
was a school boy. I have enjoy
ed meeting my schoolmates, but
some of them have scattered to
the four parts of the U. S. and
some have passed beyond the
great divide from whence no man
ever returns. So let us all live so
that those around us may be hap
pier by our sojourn on this earth.
And by so doing we will be hap
pier in this life and better prepar
ed to meet the great beyond.
I miss a great many faces that
are not to be seen on this earth,
and I trust we shall meet here on
this earth again before the final

short years since I was visiting
Georgia, with just the cares of a
boy. But now I am like many
others I meet, I have the cares of
a husband and father.
Now the best of friends must
part. On the great plains of New
Mexico I have a wife and four
children watching for my return,
so good-bye, one and all.

Memoriam.
With a sad heart we chronicle
the death of Clifford Lucile daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Brown,
who passed away Aug. sth, 1917,
at her home in Henry county.
Death followed an illness of
several weeks and was not unex
pected. She was a member of
the Methodist church, and until
her health gave way several years
ago was an active worker.
God in His infinite wisdom
knows best; yet it was so hard
for the dear old parents to give
up their only daughter. How sor
rowful we feel for them and for
ourselves, when we realize she is
no lonher in our midst; yet how
our souls swell with joy because
we realize another jewel glitters
in the diadem of the redeemed.
God calls those whom He lov
eth, though in claiming this one a
fond father, mother and brother’s
hearts are crushed with grief.
It is not for us to offer sympa
thy—the Allwise Being who sent
this great affliction will give them
strength to bear it.
Clifford was my dear friend and
relative, and I loved her, and I
trust when the resurrection morn
shall come and earth shall dis
close all its frailties, I shall meet
her where parting is no more.
