Thus we see the inroads of Death. All ages are liable to his withering grasps. He was loved very much by his parents -- but he is gone -- gone to a better world than this -- free from the troubles of this world. To the friends I would say: Now he is dead, why should you weep? You cannot bring him back! He cannot return to you, but you can go to him. Where he is now, there you may be also.
"I take those little lambs, said He, --- And lay then in my breast; --- Protection they shall find in me, --- In me be ever bless." --- J. M. Hardy.
