OBITUARY.

By G. W. Edwards

FELL asleep, March 29, 1861, Sarah Elizabeth, daughter of G. W. and E. Edwards, aged three years, six months, and twenty days. Her disease was typhoid fever. This affliction has served to win our affections from the transient and fading things of earth to those more permanent and abiding realities beyond this mortal life. We mourn our loss, but the words of the Lord to Rachel afford us comfort. Jer. xxxi, 15-17. We hope to prepare for that event that will re-unite the righteous, both parents and children.
G. W. EDWARDS.
