Spource: Twice-A-Week Plain Dealer July 4, 1899, FP. C7

On the 27th of June, 1899, of whooping cough and cerebro spinal meningitis. Lucy Alberta Matilda Betts, aged 300 days. She was born on the Calends of September, was a child of extraordinary intelligence, great beauty, and a sweet and quiet disposition. Everybody loved her. She is now one of the Lambs of the upper fold, and of “of such is the Kingdom of Heaven.” This is the second time death has entered our household, depriving us of the last of our jewels. Her mortal garments are here on earth, but her spirit has taken its flight and entered a new tabernacle in the Paradise of God. And now we look
"Beyond the starry skies.
Far as the eternal lulls.
Where, in the boundless world of light.
Our great Redeemer dwells.”
—ARTHUR BKTTS.

CARD OF THANKS.
We tender our sincere thanks to the kind friends who assisted us during the sickness, death and burial of our beloved Lucy.
ARTHUR BETTS, EMMA O. BETTS.
