On last Friday afternoon about 5 o'clock the death Angel visited the home of Hon. and Mrs. D. II. McLean in this town and claimed the most cherished flower of that happy home little Belle Gilmon, the young est child, aged three years and three months. Little Belle was well when her father left Mon day to attend Lillington court. She was taken sick Tuesday. Her papa came home Wednes day evening but returned next morning, hoping she was better. She continued to grow worse, but her physician did not con sider her "condition alarming until Friday, morning. Mr. McLean was notified in the af ternoon to come at once but the spirit of his little girl had gone before he arrived home. Her disease was ravaging and would not yield to .treatment. All that, "physicians, mother and friends could do were to no avail. Her mission was at an end ; the Master took her for his glory. She was a very tender jewel, the pride and joy of the house hold and a favorite to all who knew her. Her little cold form was placed in a beautiful little cas ket and taken to the Presbyte rian church Sunday morning at It) o'clock when Rev. J. S. ' 1linnifl tuP fml Ilarrell, conducted the funeral services. Dr Black read irom St. John, 13th chapter, 7th verse, the comforting words of Our Savior : "What I do thou knowest not now ; but thou shall know hereafter," and de- lirpml a short but beautitul ad dress. The interment was made at the cemetery in the presence ofalare concourse ot menus who had gathered to pay a last tribute of respect to their de ceased little friend, and cover her o-rave with beautiful flowers and shed tears of sympathy with the bereaved family. May the memory of the few short "years which little Belle was allowed to spend in that happy home lead the broken hearted mother, father, broth ers and sister to walk closer in that narrow way which leads to that beautiful gate where little Belle is ever watching auu uuiir ing for them.
