DEATH.—The announcment on
Sunday morning that Master Charlie
Lawrence, ad, waso so unneexpec Lawaence
dead,
people could hardly accept it as truth.
He had been ailing for some time
from pnuemonia, but was recovering,
and consequently it was supposed that
he had passed the critical point, but
he took a relapse, which quickly carri-
ed him off. Although only past ten
years of age, his case bad excited
much sympathy among all who knew
him, and particularly among his
schoolmates, who, during his illness
were incessant in their solicitude for
him. He was an exceptionally bright
and studious youth, possessing artis-
tic ability that promised to place him
in the front rank in comingyeara. He
gave the clearest evidence of simple
trust in theSaviour,and was mature for
his years. At the last anniversary of
theRattenbury St. Sabbath School, be
gave an original essay which,would
have been creditable to one muh old-
er than he. The evidence of the
deep heartfelt sympathy for the
bereaved parents was shown on Tues-
day, by the large number of friends
who gathered to pay the last tribute
of respect to one, who though young
bad tormed a tender spot in their af-
fections, and whose little life had not
been without its elevating influence.
