Obituary

Mable Borry, infant daughter of Mr. And Mrs. W. H. Borry, died Tuesday, October 31, age nine days.
The funeral was conducted by B. C. Wolf, pastor of the Braman charge, at the home of the parents. She came to their home one beautiful autumn day, filling their hearts with hope and their home with sunshine. Her parents took her into their hearts and clung to her with undying affection, but the Lord claimed her for his own. Her stay was like an angel’s visit. The light of her little spirit still lingers and no night darkens their hopes. She has gone to Him who said, “Where I am there ye may be also.” They are not looking for little Mable to come back to them, but they expect to go to her. –
“She may not return, but to her thou shalt go
When thy days are numbered and finished below:
And it may to the angel child be given
First to meet and welcome her mother to heaven:
And there reunited to part never more,
One song shall ye sing and one Savior adore.” - B. C. Wolf
