The Death Roll

Riley

Before the last issue of the Herald reached many of its readers, the pure 
spirit of Master Hugh, the affectionate son of Mr. M.L. Riley, took its flight 
to a Heavenly Home.  That “death loves a shining mark” could not have been more 
truly verified than in this instance, but He who gave hath taken away.  On 
Tuesday evening at 3 o’clock little Hugh peacefully breathed his last and his 
soul returned to Him who gave it life.  On the fifth of January last he was 12 
years of age and from the time he learned to read, the Bible was his daily 
guide and tried in everyway possible to live in the full discharge of his 
Christian duty.  A few months ago Hugh gave his heart to the Lord and united 
with the Methodist church.  Since that time he has been His child.  In school 
he was loved by all his playmates and in Sabbath school was punctual with his 
presence and his lessons and will be sadly missed by all.  His whole life was a 
model of perfection and it is to be hoped that his example will lead others to 
Christ.  His remains were interred in the cemetery in Butler on Wednesday 
evening, the services being conducted by his pastor, Bro. Funderburk.
