In Loving Memory of R. J. Stubbs. Among written bv reaved ones'hei e. liev. F. B. Par- amoresays: "Wife and I called to see him several times. Upon giving him a New Testament to read, hejexpressed his faith in His teachings and told his nnrse he was not afraid to die." Mrs. Para more says: "He told us what a good mother he had and I learned to love your boy and shed tears of sorrow at his death. He has gone to a better home where there is no sickness or sorrow." W. Creightc n says. 'I was at his bedside until they laid him to nst. He died very happy and easy,, but suffeied very much befi re his tieatli. He had the best of care and did not wish for an thiu save to see his mother." He did not know his case was so serious for only a few days be fore his death, friends wrote us he would be better soon and pos sibly able to ccme home. But thus he died far away from loved ones at home, and on July 14. as the Sabb.'th sun was over topping the far away hills they laid him to rest. Unlike many of us he was" free handed, perhaps to a fault,-, giv ing to any whom he found in need. Our loss is his eternal gain, for: "So fni from home and native town, From those he loyeil so well, From fr across the western plain l!oiue tidings so sad to tell. "So'far from homo and ypt so near. His Savior mid his (iod; To tsrijrhten life he's pafinpr on, While we pass 'nath the sod. "No fer of pain or sorrow more.
