Died on Sunday evening, the 10th of April, Stella Virginia, daughter of Alvah O. and Maria A. Rogers, aged 3 years, 9 months and 3 days.

She dies, young Stella dies,

In beauty’s early bloom,

The bud of beauty lies

Now moldering in the tomb.

She sleeps, sweet Stella sleeps,

In her cold and quiet bed;

Each parent sadly weeps

For the loved one early dead.

She lives, yes, Stella lives,

Her spirit cannot die;

It dwells in everlasting bliss-

In Immortality.

Why o’er the casket weep?

The gem has pass’d away,

The dust-O, let it sleep

Till resurrection day!
