                              Resolutions of Respect.
                                   _____________

     Whereas, It has seemed proper and fitting in the wisdom and love of the Almighty 
Disposer of events, that He should take from our midst and from the midst of many 
friends and dear ones, the loving daughter of a doting mother, the amiable friend 
of numerous companions and the talented pupil of our Sunday school - Miss Lillian 
Gilbert. And

     Whereas, This irreparable loss is duly felt and deplored by us, the ones who 
are permitted to remain a little longer and farther assist in the high and noble 
work to which her life was dedicated. Therefore, be it

     Resolved, That we take this opportunity, in these moments of grief, to express 
our heartfelt sympathy to those of the broken family circle who yet grieve because 
of her absence. Yet they must realize that she is not dead, but has only moved her 
abode to life forever with God. We, too, in our sorrowing, know that her soul has 
been plucked, as a rosebud, by Divine Wisdom, to be placed in the Valhalla of 
heaven. She suffered on earth, but she suffers now no more.

     Resolved, That a copy of these resolution be sent the sorrowing family, and 
that a copy be handed THE GAZETTE for publication.
 
                                                                Mrs. Doshia Ramsey
                                                                Edw. Everett
                                                                John Roaten
