NOBLE BURNS Wabash Pearl Nov. 11. 1910 Noble Burns son of Ora A. and Mary E. Bailey was born March 18 , 1910, departed Oct. 30th 1910 at 1 AM. aged 7 months and 12 days. After the loving hands of the family, kind relatives and neighbors had done all that loving hands could do to relieve the suffering of the little one, but just before the gray dawn of the morning, the winged messenger of death hovered over the home of Mary and Ora Bailey and whispered to little Noble Burns that Jesus wanted him to come home. Although this little bud that had just begun to open to such a promising fair flower, could hardly be spared from the home. Yet Jesus has said "Let the little children come unto me", and we must be content to let him go. Knowing he is at home with Jesus. Although the crib will be empty, yet he is beckoning loved ones to come where he is, and all that is left for us to do is to live pure, holy lives, that when the messenger calls for us we may be ready and waiting to answer the call and clasp glad hands with those who have preceded us, where there will be no weeping, no more heartaches, and where departure is not known. He leaves a kind father, a devoted mother, two sisters, two brothers and other relatives and friends to mourn his departure. *************************************************************** USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free information on the internet, data may be used by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
