Obituary

Died, September 29, 1890, at the residence of Grandma Tarbell, after a painful illness of forty one days, Wallace Litton, son of B. C. and L. S. Litton. Wallace was 13 years, 4 months and 29 days old. He was a bright and lovely boy, he bore his affliction patiently and spoke to his parents and friends of his departure with calmness and hope which was remarkable for one of his age. He thanked all of his friends for their kindness to him during his sickness, and requesting his parents and friends to remember him he bade his loved ones farewell, placed his hands upon his breast and passed gently away with the angels across the dark river to the bright land beyond.

We part in hope to meet above,
Where all is joy and all is love.
