we are able to praise God that he has
removed^ne of his dear children to the
throne of eternal glory and triumph with
Paul: Deai&, srj&efe is thy sting? Grave,
where is tny^ctory'i Rest dear soul, in
the arms of toother earth, slumber quiet¬
ly until tfae.T$»eo ot omnipotent Jesus

ng celestial anthems of
