After an illness of three weeks, Vir-
ginia Caroline Burnett died at her fa-
ther s residence in Round Prairie on
Friday, August 31st, aged 18 years.
At no time duiing her last sickness did
her friends think it serious until lhurs-
day morning she took a relapse and
never rallied. All that medical skill
could do was done to alleviate her suf-
fering but the final message had come.
By the side of her mother and sisters,
in the beautiful Masonic cemetery, all
tliat was mortal ot little v irgie is iaia
to rest. The joys and sorrows, the
temptations and triumphs of life are no
more for her. She has solved the
sublime problem has crossed the dark
river of death. Her soul enshrined in
the loveliness of her girlhood, in its
gentleness, in its purity, in its faithful
ness has appeared betore her Uoa and
ae eternal gates have swung wida ajar
and angels' voices have welcomed her
paradise. U uiversally beloved,
with a kind and affectionate father,
oving brothers and sisters, with a joy-
ous, sunny disposition Virgie had all to
ive for, and we can but marvel at the
