In Memoriam.
"O dark death an. -el messenger of woe!
1 The'g'eanilug march' thou lovest well is thine,
A hriitht young life is withered Death thy blow;
The rstket pure, the fair ami tittinn shrine
Of earth's best gem-a fresh unsullied heart.
Lies rent and ruined neath thy ruthless dart."
The sorrowful tidings of the death of Miss
Ora . Armitagt), which occurred at the family
residence near Kugene, on the 1st lust., sad
dened the hearts of a wide circle of friends ami
a ipiaintauces; but to none did the mournful
inullivnee brim; mors heartfelt sorrow thau to
the in matea ol the Sacred Heart Academy
Salem, by whom the deceased was so Wtlj
known and loved. Teachers and achotduiate
were deeply grieved on bearing of the sad
event, which, beiiur mitxpect'il, cam with
j crushing force and cast a klooni over the eutire
I tchisd. Scarcely a mouth hail rolled by since
the i:irtin.' words were sunken for Ora was
' iroini home hut not one susnrcted that shs
was so rapidlv nearin.' the j.iiirney's end that
broutflu her to her Heavenly hmr.e. No one
j thought that the vacant rliair anvVk in the
' class room would so soon be t""ed with tns
cypress of sorrow, while the silunt tear (if
. teacher ami e asr mates lmi.1 a mute but
eliHient tribute to the memory of the dear
dep.iitfl, of wIiofi it mht bd truly said,
"None knew her hut to love her,
None named far but to praise,"
Gentle, affectionate, and highly gifted by
natrire, it is uo surprising that her sweet
siinty disposition wound itself round the hearts
of tTio'ie in whose Wiunry her naiuie shall ever
be k-Vt green as the verdure with which spring
will (..sin deck her early grave. Kecalliru; the
many amiable qualities that enriclitil the cliar
as-ter nf the deceased, earthly voices whisnr,
"how sail to cull so lovely a flower." Hut
Heavenly messengers answer, "Tie well to
gather it for the uar.lin of the Kuni em the
chill blast shoul.l eulty tt..flr cnrmUaj." To
the members of the bereaved family,, particu
larly Miss Ella Ainiitage, a graduate of the
Sacred Heart Academy, and sister of our
departed classmate, we extend affectionate con'
ilolence and sympathy.
The loved ones yet in eit left,
The aorrow-stricken band,
The household group of joy bereft
liy ruthless reapers' .hand
Shall still in closest, un'ou blend,
And o'er that path of prayer,
With fearless f.sitsteps shall ascend
The angel guarded stair,
Until beyond its gol.leii nates,
The gathered llock shall see ,
The "p tores fair" where love awaits
lU glad eteruity.
