Alice Allen

Allen, the sweet little three-year-old daughter of Mr. And Mrs. Ward Allen died Thursday, August 30, 1900, at 12 o’clock. She had been sick but a short time when the death angel claimed her. Mr. And Mrs. Have the heart felt sympathy of the entire community in their sad bereavement.

Gone from earth, yes gone to Heaven,
Tear dimmed eyes shall gaze in vain,
We shall see our darling never;
Never more on earth again.
But bright angels upward bore her
To her home in peace with God;
While we broken hearted o’er her
Bow beneath the chastening rod.
