In Memory ef Miss Bridget Lantry.

Not dead, but sleeping, softly sleeping, Resting afier toilsome yeare,

W here nor earthly wail nor weeping Wrings the heart with anguished fears,

Safe withivu His eucred keeping In a home where flow not tears.

Deeds of mercy, great in merit, Noble deeds as nobly done,

More than lettered pages tell it Of the priceless erown she’s won:

Souls she sought in eernest spirit For the Great Eterral One.

Earth has heroes rich in glory; Nations echo with their fame, Laude their deeds in battle gory, 1 Trumpets forth each mighty name; But who heeds the simple story Of another hero’s claim 7%

Theirs no deeds of mighty valor Blazoved with a nation’s praise;

But, afar from earthly clamor Struggled they through weary days

For the souls He fain would gatber,— Souls He came on earth to save.

Those the heroes all should honor, Those the deeds that merit fame; Earth may beed therm not; but, yonder, Heaven shall trumpet forth their name. One bas left us, may He crown her "Mong His mightiest, bigh in fame. M.

OBITUARY,

It is with deep regret we announce the death of Daniel A. McDonald, Orwell

Cove, which seadevent took place on the | 7th iust., after a lingering illaees of two | Goff’s. ‘ weeks of slow fever in

the eleventh year of his age. The deceased was the oldest and dearly beloved son of Donald: D. Me- Donald. Hewas both gentle and kind, and his winning manners made him a epecial favorite with all his comrades, in whose hearts are enshrined the loving memory which it will be long ere it sball be forgotten. His funeral to Vernon River took piace on Sunday the 9h inst., fullowed by a large concourse of people and # procession of his young fellow friends whose hearts were teucbed with sorrow at losing a loving friend who can never be replaced. ‘to his sorrowing father we extend our sincere #ympatby. May his soul rest in peace.

The child of our love and affection We have laid to his long Jast rest. When God made his choice it was cast

On the treasure we prized the best. As like the snow-flake, spotless,

That falls to it source, the sea, Ere the world had defied his spirit

We gave him back, Lord, to Thee.
