IN MEMORIAM.
LILLIAN BAILEY.
Death, the cruel reaper, is ever passing through our midst, cutting down, with 
his relentless scythe the ripe grain and the tender flowers.
Yesterday, he gathered a fair young bud, unfolding with rare promise of 
loveliness, in the bright morning hours of life.
With sincere regret and affectionate sympathy do we unite with the bereaved 
parents and friends of our beloved school-mate, Lillian Bailey, in mourning the 
sad dispensation of Providence, that has taken her so suddenly from our midst.  
But we are comforted by the thought that she has been transplanted to the 
Paradise of God, and will there bloom with more than earthly beauty.
Her quiet, gentle ways, and her amiable, affectionate disposition endeared her 
to all, and give us a sweet memory of her brief life.  Be it,therefore,
Resolved, 1st, That the teachers and pupils of the McDonough Street Female 
School tender their heartfelt condolence to the parents of our little friend.
2d. That while we deeply deplore our loss, we bow with submission to the will 
of our heavenly Father.
3d. That as a token of our regard, we will attend the funeral, and wear the 
usual badge of mourning.
4th. That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family, and to the city 
papers for publication.
Committee:
Jessie S. Boring
