DIED.  On Sunday morning, July 28, 1895, Claira, eldest daughter of Mr. R. N. 
Terrell and Mrs. Dora Terrell, aged 1 year, 4 months, and 26 days.
	It seems hard to part with our little ones, just as they are budding 
into life, but “The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.”  We heartily 
sympathize with the bereft parents in their sad bereavement, and commend them 
to the words of Christ, while upon earth.  “Suffer little children to come unto 
me and forbid them not, for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven.”  We know that 
all who die in their infancy are received into glory, and are among the 
Heavenly Angles.  They cannot come back to us, but we can go to them.  Let us 
all so live that in the day of final account we may meet our loved ones who 
have gone before, high up in Glory, where parting is unknown.

IN MEMORY OF LITTLE CLAIRA – Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. N. Terrell. Who Died 
July 28, 1895 Aged 1 Year 4 Months and Twenty Days
‘Mid the sinless little children
Who have heard Christ’s “Come to Me,”
Is this lovely little cherub,
Blest for ever more to be.
Far beyond Death’s gloomy valley
Resting on His loving breast,
Where the wicked cannot enter,
And the weary are at rest.

It was sad to lose your darling
Parents, let me say to thee
She is saved from care and sorrow,
And from sin is ever free.
You will miss the little foot-falls
Pattering all about the place,
Miss the touch of little fingers,
And the winsome, tender grace.

Of the baby, God but lent you
And hath taken back up there
Where she’ll dwell amid the angels
And I say for you, this prayer.
“May you through Christ’s mediation
Find your sins are all forgiven
And that Claira’s face will greet you
AT the golden gates f Heaven.
	NELLIE LANA CARNES, Winfield, Ala. August 2, 1895
