A cluster of weeping friends around a little lifeless form, pale cheeks and eyes that were closed in endless sleep, told the sad, sad story.

That sad messenger, Death, had invaded the town, had entered a house, and laid his icy hands upon its dearest object, blighted the hopes of a devoted father, broken the heart of a fond young mother, and cast a shadow of gloom over the hearts of all. Death is so sad under all circumstances, but when its victim is one so young, and tender, "a sweet blossom of a day," his touch is so merciless and cold. Yes, on Friday morning, October 3rd, at 1.40 o'clock, in the town of Hoffman, N. Marvin Russell Bal-lentine, infant son of Mr. and Mrs.

C. M. Ballentine, after a long and painful illness, went to be with the angels, and with him who hath said, "Suffer little children to come unto me." If the love of parents, their prayers, and their tear3, could have thwarted the death messenger in his purposes, our precious little Marvin would not have died. Two sainted grand-mas, and a sweet little cousin (Macon Rand), were doubtless watching, and waiting for him in the glory land. His funeral was preached in the M.

E. Church, in Sanford, by Rev. Wm. Craven, P. and on Saturday afternoon he was buried in the cemetery there, beside his grand-ma Austin, who had preceded him a few months to the place "I go to prepare." May He who is our refuge and our strength, who enables us to bear our sorest afflictions, teach the bereaved ones, that "it is God who hath bereft us, and He will heal all our sorrows." "GRANDPA." Fuquay Springs, N.

Oct. 10. The Standard Railway of the one year, eight months. Heaven seems nearer since the little ones have gone. May we again clasp them to our bosoms in "the sweet bye and bye." MOTHER.

1 tor SOUTH Lord. He was the father of Rev. J. T. Lyon, formerly of the N.

C. Conference. Two children survive him Mrs. H. B.

Jenkins, and Mrs. R. H. Moore, of Nash County. They miss him in their homes, but sorrow not without hope, for from his consistent Christian life, his abiding faith in Christ, there comes a hope, blooming with immortality.

J. M. BENSON. STALLING S. Theophilus Stall-ings was born in Warren County, April 23, 1833, and died September 20, 1902, in Henderson, N.

C. He was converted when but a boy, and joined Hebron Methodist Church, but 17 years ago he moved his membership to the Henderson Methodist Episcopal Church, South, of which he remained a loyal, consistent member to his death. He was twice married; first to Miss Martha Brame, and some years after her death Lou. Corbitt, who died three years ago. By his first wife he leaves five children, two sons and three daughters, to mourn his death.

His illness of heart-trouble continued through nine months, during which unexcelled medical skill, with the watchful, loving care and tender ministrations of devoted children, availed not in arresting his decline. Through it all, however, his faith in God gave him an abiding assurance of eternal life in the beyond, revealed in his beautiful resignation, serene spirit and unf alter tread, as he bravely and consciously walked down to death. As a ripe sheaf, he has been gathered into heaven's eternal garner, to await the coming of his loved ones left behind. "Blessed are the dead, who die in the Lord." J. D.

BUNDY. STEED. Laura Elizabeth Asbury Steed, was born September 6, 1871, and died August 22, 1902, aged 30 years, 11 months, and 16 days. She was converted and joined the M. E.

Church, South, at the age of 14 years. She was a great worker in the Sunday-school, and organist of the church when she died. It was my privilege to know this good Christian woman having been her pastor in 1886-7, and then in December, 1891, married her to Mr. Steed. She was a bright, self-sacrificing woman, devoted to her parents, and then to her husband and children.

While her pastor, it was a pleasure to us to visit her father's family, and to take wife, and children along. Miss Laura as we familiarly called her was so helpful and thoughtful about taking care of our children to give wife rest, and that she might enjoy her visit. We will never forget her cheerful face, and quickness of thought, and action, her sweet spirit, and Christian character. These things make us miss her more, but they will enrich her life in the happy, beyond. Someone has said that the greatest eulogy given to a family is the character of the children brought up in the family.

If this is true and doubtless it is then, in the life and character of Sister Steed, Dr. F. E. AsbiiryV family has a never-dying eulogy placed upon it. To the bereaved families, let me say that from the fact of her great worth here, makes her contribution to heaven greater, and in a stronger cord to bind and draw us to heaven.

May God's lichest blessings and sweetest comforts be given to you all, and lets wait faithfully and cheerfully until called to join her. J. E. WOOSLEY. Guilford College, N.

C. BALLENTINE. "The baby is dead Died at 1 o'clock this These were some of the things the message said, that flashed over the wires last Friday morning, and with it came tears, and sorrow, and sadness.

He was a good man, having been a member of the church for many years. He was also a man of very fine information, and character. He was thoughtful, gentle, and devoted to his friends, and faithful in attending church. We believe his spirit is at rest. May God comfort the sorrowing ones.

J. E. IIOLDEN. WILLIAMS. Little Natta Lee, the youngest child of N.

C. and Sal-lie Williams, fell asleep in the arms of Jesus, June 12, 1902, aged six months, and nine days.
