			"Oliver Louis BOWES
	"Age 3 years and 5 months, son of Joseph F. BOWES and
Marie BIAGGINI.
	"The golden rays of last Sunday had scarcely dispelled
the gloom of dawn when the cruel reaper chose for his victim
the light-hearted little Oliver BOWES."

	"His short span of life had covered but three years and
without a warning note, the shrill blast summoned his pure
soul to the arms of his creator. Four days of illness
foretold the end. His obedient, loving affectionate nature
was the greatest cheer of his mother and father's life. His
generous, cheerful and kindly disposition was the tie that
bound him to the little companions of his youth.
	"Let the sorrow of his mother, father, and little
sisters be soften by the thought that while his mortal lips
are silent, his little soul lisp its prayers from its
"sheltered rest11 in his heavenly home in the ears of our
divine Saviour who will so guide him to his Heavenly home.
  
						"R. B."
