Friday
March 19, 1897

The deepest sympathy is expressed for Mr. and Mrs. Jas. SMYTERS is the loss of
their child, a lovely baby of two years.
The little one after three weeks suffering died at 5 a.m. March 15th. The
funeral was held Tuesday afternoon in the home of E.W. GRINDLE, conducted by
Rev. BATES. 
Myrtle has gone beyond earth's weeping, 
She has fled from sin and care,
She is safe in angel's keeping,
Where the skys are ever fair.

Far away and yet so near us,
In angel's bands of light and love,
She can ever watch and hear us
Ass though earth's dark vale we rove.

She will meet and cheer and greet us, 
Our loved one who has gone before,
We shall find her at the portals
When we reach the other shore.

Card of Thanks.
We wish to express our sincere thanks to our friends and neighbors who so kindle
assisted us with their help and sympathy during the sickness and burial of our
little Myrtle. Only those who have themselves suffered, can know the bitterness
of such a bereavement or appreciate the hand of sympathy and words of loving
council and cheer from earthly friends who would help us to be resigned to the
will of the Father who hath given for a season and hath take away to his eternal
kingdom.
Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Smythers
Mr. and Mrs. E.W. Grindle.
