       Suffolk Letter. 

  James Minew [sic; Minue] Tebo, little son of Mr. and Mrs. W.S. Tebo, died 
Dec. 12th, after a lingering illness of complication of diseases, following 
measles.  He was four years old on the 14th of last May, and was middle one of 
three children.  He was a bright little lad, a favorite in the neighborhood on 
their street, and a real treasure in the home.  His life was brief, but a real 
part of that family forever, as George Washington is to be a part of national 
history forever.  The least in the kingdom of heaven is the greatest.  The 
short graves in the cemetery are just as precious as the long ones.  The dew 
drop lingers but a short time on grass or flower, but long enough to reflect 
the glory of the sun; so this tender life lingered long enough in the home to 
reflect the glory of God to parental hearts.  May richest blessings fall upon 
the wounds in their hearts and heal, till every ache becomes a hope, and every 
dark place contains a star of peace. 

[...] 
                      W.W. STALEY.
