Died:--October 20th, 1897, Grace Copeland; aged 8 years, 7 months and 13 days. Again have we been called to mourn the loss of a sweet little girl, a lovely, unfolding bud which gave great promise of a beautiful life. But the Father hath called her to a fairer land and as she told all, "This is the way," we know God's ways are best. This is a severe blow on the father and mother as three times before have they laid away forms so dear to them. The funeral was at the M. E. church Thursday afternoon; Rev. McCuskey giving words of wisdom and comfort. They have the sympathy of all in this more than double affliction.
CARD OF THANKS.
We heartily thank all the many friends who were so thoughtful and kind in our late sorrow.
MR. AND MRS. JOHN COPELAND--------
