Alieita was known as a most lovdable and affectionate chUd, and was admired and loved by all who knew her. She leaves a father, mother and several brothers to mourn her loss, and a host of friends whom we hope will endeavor to meet her in that glorious and happy home, when ' the good meek and lovely will some day meet. May Cod bless the bereaved ones and guide-them Heavenly bound. Ah! How sadly her little school mates will miss her, she was so kind to each one. But we all must cheer up for we are sure to meet her rgain. We all feel like we have a treasure in heaven of whom we have mourned deeply. But oh if she could hut speak to us she could give us happy tidings of yonder Heavenly Home. Where she is in such close and sweet associ¬ ation with the father and his pure angels. Oh! God it was so hard for us to give her up, that we felt there was nothing to live for. But we have, must live so as to meet our angel above. Sweet Alieita the Light of the home. And pure as the dew. Anxiously is waiting papa and mama, for you. At this writing Mrs Joyner is in a critical condition suffering from nervous prostration whom we hope will speedly recover. i i Auburn. )) GENTLEMEN OF ENGLAND.
