Little RUSSELL, the infant son of MR. and MRS. FRANK MOTE, died on Friday evening, January 8, at their home in Van Wert. For two short weeks he had been the light of the home but was suddenly taken away, leaving his young parents bereft and heart broken. Funeral services were held at the home, conducted by rev. A.B. Cornell, after which the loved form was laid to rest in the cemetery near by. The grief stricken parents are assured of the sympathy of scores of friends in this, their great sorrow and will be greatly comforted in knowing that neither sickness nor sorrow can touch their loved one who is now "Safe in the arms of Jesus," and waiting to greet them over there.

Yes, we'll meet them in that city ~
that is just across the strand.
And our hearts will leap with rapture
when they take us by the hand,
Oh, I know that we shall know them
though their Heavenly robes they wear
They will bid us welcome ever,
We shall know our loved ones there.
