In Loving Memory Of T. K. Clower, son of Mr. Will Clower, who resides in Hampton, Ga. Kenneth Clower, age 29, died in Massachusetts, September 14, 1918, while faithfully serving his countv. His remains were sent to Georgia and on Sept. 20, he was quiettly laid to rest in the Old Mount Pleasant burying ground. The funeral service was con ducted by Rev. Oscar McMullin, after which the Woodmen of the World took charge. He was survived by a father, three sisters, three brothers and step-motherr The Departed Soldier. As 1 sit alone in the twilight Sadly dreaming of a departed friend. Something whispers to my heart tonight: Heaven’s gate he’s entered in. He was honest, noble and true, With a kind and loving heart. If his voice you once knew, It was never to be forgot. His life was in its morning; His work was just begun; He answered his country’s call And reached the setting sun. With smiling face and waving hand He hade us all goodbye, And went to join the soldier band And for his army die. Far from home, from friends and love, He lay and suffered pains unknown, ’Till Jesus whispered from above: My son, I’ll take thee home. Perhaps he lingered to see dear faces, And yearned to hear their gentle voices. The soldier's Savior in all places Comforts the heart ’till it rejoices. He thinks 1 hear his gentle whisper And see his radiant face; As he, beyond death’s dark river, Smiling and happily waits. Oh, ceaseless teardrops, stop thy flowing! For where thy precious friend is now Angels may hear the bugles blowing. Hut there’s no war call “over there.” Oh, sad hearts, cease thy grieving •For life’s battles quickly endeth. Never more will he be leaving; Never more they’ll call dear Kenneth. The longest life Is short and fleeting, So not long we’ll tarry here Until we clasp his hand in greeting . In the homeland “over there.” His Fkiend. MOUNT BETHEL NEWS. Mr. J. E. Andrews of near Fitz gerald, in South Georgia, is visit ing his daughter, Mrs. F. B. Strhan.
