Death of R.L. Moon

   The above subject deserves more than a passing notice. Just when he was 
entering into the prime of manhood, God saw fit to call him from our midst.  
How hard it was for a young; kind and loving wife, sister and brothers to give 
him up. But while in their sad hours of grief, there is consolation to them to 
know he has entered those golden gates, and is at the beautiful white throne 
of Heaven, with the Father he loved so well and reverenced, while he gave up 
his life resignedly into God's hands and his pure noble spirit passed away.
   To his wife, brothers, and sister who are left to bear the burden of grief 
for his  loss, together with  many grief-stricken friends, and who loved him 
for his goodness and pure nobility of soul, we extend our heart-felt 
sympathies. But we try to check the rising sigh and falling tear, for we know 
that our loss is God's gain, he is in heaven--forever there.
    "It  matter not at what hour of the day
     The righteous fall asleep; death cannot come
     To Him untimely who is fit to die;
     The loss of this cold world, the more of Heaven
     The briefer life, the earlier immortally"
                            S.L.C.
Monroe, La. Jan. 20th 1891
