ELMIRA, daughter of M. and E.
Book,
aged 23 years, 4 months and 9 days. From infancy Maggie was
afflicted with
consumption and only lived to suffer. She deeply mourned her
mother's death,
but fearful as the separation was, it was of short duration. She
was motherless
but four days -- was then called from her home below to her home in
Heaven. Let
the heart of the father, brothers and sisters be cheered by the happy
thought
that poor little Maggie no longer suffers, but has been released form
the ills
of life and has gone to live with her mother and all the host of
Heaven.
