CYRUS WILLIAMS CLAIMED BY DEATH

    On Sunday morning, Aug 17, just a short
while before the Sabbath cast its rays of 
light over the new sprinkled earth, that 
unwelcomed visitor, the angel of death 
entered the home of Mr. & Mrs. W. E. 
Williams and claimed as its victim Hoyt Tyrus, 
their two year old son, and bore his sweet spirit
home to God. He had been sick for about a
week but not confined to a bed and his 
condition was not considered serious until a 
moment or so before he passed out. Having gone
so suddenly and without a moments warning to is
loved one's makes it all harder to bear. He called 
for water prior to his death, and in the act of being 
raised up, a blood vessel was ruptured over flowing
the brain and his life went out 
like a lamp extinguished by the mighty wind.

  He was laid to rest in Valley Grove Cemetery 
Monday afternoon, August 18, rev. J. H. Taylor 
conducting the funeral services.
We shall meet in that bright mansion where 
sad parting comes no more.
