SUDDEN DEATIL --On Sunday after-
noon last, Mr. and Mrs. 0. H. Perkins
of the ath con. Usborne, were shocked
to hear of the very sudden death of
their eldest son, Arnold, he only it few
moments before having left in com-
pany with other members of the fam-
ily for to attend James et, Methodist
Sunday Scbool, when only a short dis-
tance front home he fell forward, in,
the cutter and immediately expired.
Deceased was in his 19bh year, and al-
though he had. never been of a strong
rugged. nature., his early demise was
rather unexpected!
CALLED.
In loving remembrance of Arnold
Perkins.
'Twixt the Seen and the Unseen
While the sun shor o warm and bright;
There came a band of angels,
In robes of misty white. •
We did not hear them coming,
So softly they seemed to fly ;
Arid caught our brother, Arnold,
To those mansions in the sky.
We did not hear their sweet singing,
They songs° soft and low:
We did not know the dark tidings,
That,—"Arnold had to go!"
But then we know our Jesus,
Did it all in Holy love;
And that our brother, Arnold,
Is withAtigels now above.
So we'll wait in patience ;
Thwhe %any Ivizenleia,aur amteheatneog;
