THE BUSY BEE, March 29, 1894
Joined the Army of the Dead.

  It is with deep regret The Bee announces to you the death of little Willie, 
the seven year old son of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Snodgrass, who departed this life 
Tuesday evening at about 7 o'clock.  The little fellow had been suffering for a 
number of days, though at the time of his death it was not believed he was so 
very bad;  However, he is now no more,

And one chair in the family circle
  Is vacated by his going;
One seat is placed at the festive board
  Seems longing, ever longing.
But Willie, little Willie,
  You are free from life's dull care,
You have brushed aside the troubles of earth
  And joined the Heavenly fair.

Yes, hark, me thinks I hear the Angels call;
  And see their gates ajar.
They have opened wide their portals
  To admit him from afar.
They have clasped his little hand in their's
  And welcomely received him there.
The Angels are always glad, mother,
  When children climb their stairs.
