The little we get from ads and subscriptions just pays expenses, leaving noth. ing for your servants, the two faithful workers, theed, itor and wife. So try to find a way to remember us. Neighbor L. E. Elggren, one of the best friends we ever had, composed a poem after the death of his wife, the last two verses are as follows: God, our Father, thanks for the kindly fate, Such a 'gracious, lovely and perfect mate Ever fresh as the springtime through all life'shours; Now she's gone wit h the leaves and the fragrant flowers. God, our Father, now she's sleeping well, In thy holy presence she comes to dwell; So good night, dear loved one sweet dreams a kiss, Till comes that promised morn to renew our bliss. Friends R. M. Brandon and wife have quit their place in i Mt. Home and moved to Salt Lake to reside indefinitely. Friend Arthur L.
