God has seen fit in his infinite wisdom to pluck from earth one of his tender blossoms, little Estel Baucom, aged one year, 2 months, 9 days, Estel (daughter of Iva and Geo. Baucom Iva, who departed this life some fourteen months ago.) When we sympathize with the bereaved parent and relatives, yet there is a great consolation for God had said, “Come unto me, ye little children, for such is the kingdom of Heaven.” And there are no truer words than the language of the poet when he said, “ Innocent child and snow white flower, well are ye paired in your opening hour, thus should be pure and lowly meet stainless with stainless and sweet with sweet.” A Friend.
