About six weeks ago relatives in this' city learned ot the sevsre illness ot Miss Ruth Robison, daughter ot tre late Hanmer Robison and Han. nah Nielsen Robison who Uvsd ln Pleasant Grove until few years ago when they moved to Salt Lake City. Miss Ruth had been a great sufferer suffer-er all her life from heart trouble. It was a miracle to many physlcans and relatives that she could have lived so long, Her faith and determination to live seemed to help her to stay. For the past, six weeks Miss Olpln, a cousin ot hers and a trained nurse was constantly on hand to aid her mother in her care. , Everything that medical skill and loving hands could do for her was done but she passed away Friday at H p. m. Her twin brother Roy preceded her to the Great Beyond ten years ago, her father about a year ago. She is survived by her mother and ' the following brothers and sisters: Byard Minerva and Florence Robison. A short funeral service was held In Salt Lake Monday at 11 a. m, at the Robison home. At two o'clock p. mi funeral services were held in the Pleasant Grove Tabernacle with Bishop 8. L. Swenson ln charge. The opening selection was ' "Sometime Well Understand" sung by B. J. Merck, Stella Hardman and Viola Thorne accompanied - by Mrs. Sadie Clark after which the Invocation was offered by Joseph H. Adams nd the trto sang "My Father Knows". N. Kj Nlelson war the first speaker and he eaid "These are crest: times to make us think ot the great prob. lems ot life". He told tbe beautiful story ot the HIndo Princess 'who was taken away. " The parenta ware-heart broken and complained to' their God who told them that It they would go to some home where there had been no loss of life or any serious trouble and ask for a handful .of, mustard seed and' receive It the . daughter would be ' restored. They, wandered till they were old and gray but could not find such a home. They gave up In dlspalr and finally decided that the fate ot the fair princess Is the fate ot us all. He further said, "Miss Ruth lived longer than ' almost any other child could under the circumstances. She will meet her twin brother Roy and her father who was so devoted to her during his lifetime and associate as-sociate with them for all eternity in the spirit world, where things are pleasant, and where they can rejoice In each other's society. We extend sympathy to those who -are left-She left-She lived an exemplary life and was firm in tbe faith and was like one "who wraps the drapery of his couch about him and lies down to Pleasan. dreams." ' Stella Hardman and daughter, Viola Thorne rendered a vocal duet, "Unanswered Yet" Bishop E. D. Olpln, the next speaker said, "Twenty .five years ago D. H. Robison and myself left for missions to bear the gospel message to the world. Our farewells were said, at the depot at the same time but twelve montrs ago Brother Robison was called Home and his meeting with Ruth will be a glorious meeting on the other side because a' reunion with "Grandma and all who have passed before Tbe last time I called to see Ruth she said, "Why do yon look at me like that", and I replied "Because you aye so beautiful to me Ruth." She was full of hope and faith. As soon as the family felt resigned tor her to go fehe seemed to fight less for life and passed away."

Bishop t I Swenson spoke feeling, ly ot his early association with Mr, and Mrs. Robison during their early married life and said, "We feel proud and honored to bav these good people come back to the old home town to bury their dead. This Is a wonderful meeting and sympathy goes out to Sister Robison and her family. A feeling of love friendship and good will abides here. Within one year her husband and now this dear little girl, whom she almost constantly has eared for have ' passed to tbe great beyond, their souls have been enriched by what they have undergone. Myself and wife and Brother and Slater Robison have been friends from early ' childhood. We started out together not knowing any ot the severe trials that we would have to pass through We have gone this far. together and our trials, some ot them are similar, Some timet these frail bodies contain the greatest spirits and what we suffer together brings us closer together. I'm sure that Sister Robison has bad great Joy In bringing this dear spirit to the world and caring for her thus far. Love Is the great God. given prlncL pie and Miss Ruth had love in her heart tor everyone. We always have to bear up no matter how severe the trial and think, k , lite la real life Is earnest and the grave It not " tta goal ..' , . Dust thou art to dust returnest , . " Waa not spoken ot the soul , , ,t - Trust no future, however pleasant Let the past dead bury Its dead. Act, act. In the living present Heart within and God o'er head.
