Her 6ad and untimely death again teaches us the uncertainty of life, while her beautiful and Christian life will ever remain a shining example for her friends and associates.

One of the impressive features of the I services was the beautiful singing of i the choir, especially that beautiful j hymn, "Nearer, My God. to Thee," j which was sung with intense feeling j and deep emotion. The floral offerings were exceptionally exception-ally handsome and of the choicest kind. The Young Ladies' Institute sent a beautiful floral piece, emblematical of the order; the members of the Y. M. I. contributed a magnificent floral piece, consisting of Cross, Harp and Anchor; another and most attractive offering was the Gates Ajar, contributed by the boarders of the Nagle restaurant. The pallbearers were Thomas C. i O'Meara, Cornelius Kelly, Andy Col- ; Jirr3, J. B. White, T. I. Casey, Will j Hardcattle.
