Black, son of J. C. and Bettie Black, was born January 2, 1894, and fell asleep to awake in the arms of the blessed Savior March 4, 1895. Although its stay was brief on earth it was hard to part with little Tommy; but we know he is a bright and shining jewel enjoying the sweet paradise of God. Therefore, papa and mamma, weep not for your little one, but strive to meet him in a better world than this, where there is no parting or suffering. W. N. WELDON. Tyler, Texas.
