The Mechanic
THE LAND OF THE BALSAM.
By
Walter H. Candler.
Land of the Balsam, smiling in
splendor.
Out from the borderland, mystic
and old.
Sweet are thy memories, precious
' and tender.
Linked with thy summers of
azure and gold.
Old North Carolina, land of my
dreamings
Land of the lover, the loved and
the lost;
Cherish thy legends with tragedy
teeming,
Legends where love reckoned not
of the cost
Land of the brave, my heart's in
thy keeping.
And life's sweetest story, how can
I forget?
Calm are the vales where silences
sleeping.
Wake into memories tinged with
regret
Let, the full chorus of life's music
throbbing,
Swell to full, harmony, born of
the years;
Or for the loved and lost, tenderly
0 1
. sobbing, x " 1
Drop to that cadence that whis
pers of tears. ,
Land of the balsam, here s to thy
glory! -Here's
to thy daughters as.fair as
the dawn!
Here's to thy pioneer sons; in whose
Valor and lover shall live endlessly
on. "' ' "'

DEATH OF MRS.
WILLIAM HARRIS.
On the third day of April the,'
death angel visited the home of Mr.
William Harris and claimed the
loving companion and mother. She
was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
C. L. Hunnicutt, now deceased. She
was born May 19, 1883. She pro
fessed religion when 16 years old,
joined the Scotts Creek Baptist
church and was baptised by Rev.
W. E. Conner. She lived a consist
tent member until her death. She
was a loving companion and "moth
er. She was always lively and full
of fun. She always met you with
some pleasant word and a sweet
smile and bade you welcome to her
home.
But now the door is closed; those
sweet smiles are hidden; gone, nev
er more to return. But she is now
waiting at the pearly white gate to
welcome you to her happy home.
We miss her, not only those in her
honte, but all who knew her. We
believe she is singing around the
throne with her precious father,
mother, sisters and' many loved
ones who have gone on before to
welcome her to her happy home.
May God's blessings comfort the
sorrowing husband, brothers and
sisters to try harder to meet the
great day that is to coma
Lizzie's death was not a surprise
to her friends, as she had been in
bad health for quite a while. While
her passing away to her heavenly
home was peaceful and quiet, she
suffered untold misery; yet she nev
er murmured; she bore it patiently,
like one whose hope is both: sure
and steadfast; there is no dark val
ley. So her eventide was light :
She shared life's troubles with
her companion and children but
short time in this vale of tears. A
heavenly hand lias taken her away
and she is now with the angels, and
in her purity awaits in patient af
fection mitil tJie Master shall. bring
you to His feet and, with! her, "give

It is not hard to die when we can
go into the presence of our Savior
at peace with God and the world.
j The time for transplanting had
come, bne was caned m tne bloom
i of life. Lizzie had filled her mis
sion and the master had need of
her. Sweet be her rest till the
resurrection morn.
To her loved ones: We sorrow
not as those who have no hope, but
with trusting hearts we look for
ward to a happy meeting in the
future..
Lizzie was married to William
Harris December 25, 1903. She
leaves a husband, four small child
ren, and two sisters, Mrs. Wesley
Harris and Miss Jare Hunnicutt,and
two brothers,BiU Monteith and Losin
Hunnicutt, all of whom were at
her bedside, with the exception of
Losin, who is in Texas, when the
end came: All was done that was
in the power of her friends, but
of no avaiL -
! The fuiteral service, conducted
Rev- R- L- Cook of Addie, was
held at the Old Field church and
the remains were laid to rest in the
Old Field Cemetery, Friday, April
4,-19ia
Through all pain , at times she'd
smile,
A smile of heavenly birth;
And when the angels called her
home '
She smiled farewell to earth.
Heaven retaineth now our treasure,
. Earth the lovely casket keeps,
And the sunbeam longs to linger
Where our sainted sister sleeps.
