Mr.
(Communicated.)
Editor:
Judging from the time
you usually issue your pupor, you
were about ready to go to press when
the sad intelligence of the doulhs of
Miss Emma and Jimmie Donaldson
reached you, which accounts for tho
mere announcement of ono of the
sad dost occurrences within my recol
lection. Will you insert tho follow
ing:
On tho Deaths of Miss Em mn and
Jimmie Donaldson?
A voice called and tho spirit of
these dear children returned to the
God that guvo them. They were
stricken with pneumonia, the result
of measles, which proved fatal.
Emma was a tender, thoughtful
and dutiful daughter; an udorument
to the social circle; gentle, though
retired; admired for hor Christian
and womanly gruces.
She hud but entered into hor bless
ed rest when heaven’s pearly gates
again opened wide and little Jimmie,
whose breast lmd not beeu scared by
sin, was ushered in and and ulso
folded in His loving arms.
To their mother, submissive though
she is to the hand of tho Master, the
blow has left her poor heart crushed
and bleeding. To her we would give
this crumb of comfort: that though
sho is bereft of their earthly love,
angel children call her “mother,”
Memory recalls to their parents’
minds the rainbow hopes they had
indulged in, and before the consum-
ation, ere thoir lovely buds had blos
somed in all thoir beauty, they had
gone to a home beyond the stars.
Father, mother, sisters and brothers,
though plunged in a labyrinth of
gloom, nay, almost despair, cry out
for help and touch God’s fiinger in
the darkness; for
"There is no death! An angel form
Walks o’er the earth in silent tread; .
He bears our best loved things away;
And tuen we call them "dead.*'
He leaves our hearts all desolate,
He plucks our fairest, sweetest flowers;
Transplanted into Wins, they now
Adorn immortal bowers.”
A Motiieh.

the evening passed off vory pleasant

some weariness of body and mind
caused by anxiety over th* sickness of
his better half, which wo learned
with regret. That town has built up
considerably within tho past year or
two and has an air of business. The
stations along the road leading to
that place havo been growing also,

My dour mother, Mary Ann Hill
iard, was boru in Washington coun
ty, Qu , September 13th, 1820, and
died at hor homo iu this county Jan.
1st, 1887. At the birth of tho now
year the angola welcomed mother to
heaven. Kullioi and two children
wont before her to the spirit world
Four of us aro left to mourn lier
nurture. We are poorer, but, wo be
lieve, heaven is richer.
Mother was sweet spirited, quiet
and cosy in all her ways. Stic loved
home and hor children, mid cared
nothing for the fashions and follies
of this fast age. She was kind to
every one, hence hud no enemies.
LlerVickness was protracted but she
suffered without complaint. She
seemed Ao Bimnd thcrhist hours of her
life iu profound meditation, and
when asked about tier hopes, she ex
pressed no fears, but believed she
would rest in peace with God. Her
death was easy and peaceful—slowly
she sank, as dio tho waves along the
shoro or sinks the sun behind the
trees.
Rest, gentle mother, iu thy narrow grave,
Jesus died our souls to save;
Hope fondly points to tho golden shore,
Where we,11 meet again to part no more.
