James E. Breedings' child died last week, aged four years; before it died she said she loved her Pa and mother and her little sister; but she said she was going to die. She gave her toys and playthings to her sister and asked the Doctor to pray and wanted him to kneel where she could see him; he did so. Mrs. Hartman and Mrs. Collins prayed with her. She would ask every one to sing; while death was doing its work, the songs of praise would calm the mind. This is the most remarkable case that I ever saw; one being so young.

Note: Burial In the Blair Chapel Cemetery.
