BRENDEL & BRENDEL Orders Left at Edmunds & Brown's THE LATE MISS MCDONALD Who Passed Away at Her Home in Murray on Friday, May 17, 1907 A precious jewel from us has gone and Dassed into that fair and happy home. Again has the Angel of Death visited our neighborhood and taken from a once happy home, a kind and loving daughter and dearly beloved sister and one who will be sadly miss ed by all who knew her. The long days and nights of patient suffering, waiting and watching has ended, and the light of the perfectday has dawned upon the radiant spirit of Miss Florence McDonald, who on May 17, passed into the mysterious sleep of the grave. Calmly and peacefully like the closing of a summer's day, the spark of life went out of her tired spirit and Hew to the haven of rest. Florence, daughter of Mrs. Myra McDonald, born Nov. 30, 1SS4, leaves a mother, one sister, Mrs. Grace Mel linger of Ashland, Oregon, and brother, Oscar of Murdock, and many relatives and friends to mourn her loss The services were held in the Chris tian church at Murray. It is said to be the largest gathering ever there Rev. A. L. Zink of Plattsmouth, spoke words of comfort and consolation to the mourners and in his discourse likened life unto a llower that cometh fourth and is cut down. Paying beautiful tribute to the life of one who has been called so early to give up all that had been near and dear to her lere below. The dear one wished to recover for the happiness it would bring to others but could not. Otherwise she was glad to no. She bad expressed faith n her Savior and was ready to depart from this shore, from which her fath er had departed fourteen years ago She was a constant sufferer for fifteen montns irom a complication oi (dis eases, and with a patience born of di vine grace, she bore her sullenng to the last moment with such a spirit of cheerfulness, that she was taught a sweet lesson of uncomplaining, self- forgetfulness to these wbo were with ler often during her illness. Loyingly and tenderly we laid her to rest by the side of her father in the Iorning cemetery and paid our last tribute of respect to one esteemed so highly and around whose memory will cling so many pleasant recollections. Slowly and surly the cloud of sorrow has settled over the home and un speakable sorrow is burdening the nearts of tnose wuo loved ner. it is hard to give up those we love. But the ruler of the universe knoweth best and he who has taken her away will be their guiding star. Alas, that mortal men so little know As tlirouyrli this vale they tretl. They cannot see life's future charjrevl with woe Not e'en one step ahead as on we tro so strangely led. Dear tired hearts wit h ills oppressed. Fly to the shelter of (-toil's breast : What can hurt thee or alarm Within the circle of his arm! Never mind earth's stormy weather (toil and His own are close together. She was a dear and true friend to all wbo knew her. None knew her but to love her. Those who knew her best loved her most. She possessed that cheerful disposition of always seeing the brightest side of life even n her last hours spoke these cheerful words to her mother "to think all was for the best and look for the good things in life." To our short sighted wisdom, the death of such a needed one seems a sad mistake. But God's purpose is unknown to us, and all things work together for good to those who love ITim. The kind Father hath some need of his beautiful flower, so lie called her to a highbr sphere to finish her work in the happy realms of the blest. It was not meant for us to completely understand. We only kow that thou hast ffone And that the same returnless tide Which bore thee from us. tt ill glides on and on: A nd we who mourn thee with it glide Beyond the shadow and beyond the gloom Where sorrows never come: Beyond the dismal dark ness of the tomb Where flowers sweet in fadeless beauty bloom She is at home. Card of Thanks. We take this method of expressing our most heartfelt thanks to tnose kind friends and neighbors who ren dered such valuable assistance during the illness, death and funeral of our dear daughter and sister, Miss Flor ence McDonald. Their kindness will never be forgotten by us. Mas. Mika McDonald. Oscar McDonald and Family. Mrs. Grace Milliuen and Family. Mr. Wm. Puis Sr., shipped a car load of cattle to the So.
