Arrington on Tuesday morning Aug. 15th. With tender care the fond parents and sympathizing friends watched by the little sufferer through long weeks as its life clung by a slender thread, just when hope had entered the mother's heart that her darling would be spared, the silent reaper gathered the little flower that had so entwined itself about their hearts. The tearful why? of the breaved ones can only be answered in that glad morning when all things shall be revealed then: At the crystal river's brink We shall fi-d each broken link Some sweet day by and by. Dr. Griffin conducted the funeral service at the grave in a very impressive manner. Every heart in Ellaville feels the tenderest sympathy for those in the shadow of this affliction. (Transcriber's note: Agnes Arrington is buried at Ellaville City Cemetery).
