Died on Sunday, February 3d, 1895, the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Gibbons, aged four weeks and two days. The funeral services were conducted Monday, February 4th, by ten o’clock a. m., at the house by Rev. C. Hoover. The remains were laid to rest in the Barney cemetery. Thus the flowers have been cut down at death’s frost, but sorrowing not as those who have no hope, we expect to find these precious blossoms springing up again in the garden of Paradise. “For of such is the kingdom of heaven.”
