Departed this life on the Lilli of
March 1885. in Washington co. Ga.
on the 14th of March at tlie residence
of his father, Edgar Lrrin. aged 18
months anil 8 days, infant son of
Jerry A. and Nannie P. Braswell.
For eight long days did the little pa
tient babe hear his suffering with
great patients nnd if good nursing
nnd the faithful and humble prayers
of an almost broken hearted mother
coul l have kept him, little Eddie
won tl have been with us yet, but
dear little Eddie was too pure for
earth ami God has taken Him.
Pupa and mama, your lilllc angel
lialie is to-day a bright nnd shining
little angel in heaven. So dry away
those tears and try to meet him there
where you will lie soperated from our
darling little Eddie no more, although
when you look at tlie little empty
crib and the little elmir that is now
empty I know you feel like you cant
hear to live without little Eddie, hut
remember my dear ones your hidden
treasure is with Jesus who has said:
“Suffer little children to eomo unto
me and forbid them not.” And
! when lie put up those sweet little
lips which was quivering in .lentil to
kiss mama for tlie last time ho did
look so happy. All that lie could
say in a faint low whisper was mama
and in a few moments more our dear
little Eddie was gone, lie will never
j suffer any more pain and is now
where death can have no sting. Yes
! little Eddie was so sweet and so in
I telligent for one of his age, but we j
slum d not wish him back when he |
is so happy
thlze with the parents and the dear
] little sister and brother and I do
hope that we may all meet in heaven
where parting is no more.
Now little Eddies pain is ended.
And lie will so sweetly rest
