DRAKE. On Saturday morning August 29. after a painful illness, MARY A. DRAKE, wife of William H. Drake and beloved daughter of the late Frederick P. and Christiana Kelton.
- O can it be that I have left forever
- The crowded battlefield of busy life,
- The fruitless longing and the vain endeavor.
- The painful effort, the unequal strife?
- A loving Hand hath for my wants provided.
- The wings of peace are folded on my breast:
- Through pastures green our weary feet are guided.
- And by still waters doth my soul take rest.
Relatives and friends of the family are invited to attend her funeral, from her late residence. No. 637 South Paca street, this (Monday) afternoon, at two o'clock.
