I am dying in this western land, With strangers round my bed; No auntie's gentle loving hand To ease my aching head. No father near to speak of love That waits me in the skies, Or paint that glorious world above, Unto my dying -eyes. , You're kind, my stranger friends,to And try to ease my pain, fine But ere I die, I fain would see The friends I love again. 'Tis hard to die,so far away From all T Iove-alone ; tjty last words, ere my life is gone, Are of my friends and home. Tell my father how I strove To fix my thoughts on high, And how I bless his Christian life That taught me how to die. And auntie dear, who always filled A mother's place to me, P can't reward her for it now; Giod will do that for ine.. And tell my only sister dear, Though in the grave I sleep, My spirit stili to her is near, And vigils o'er her sleep. My brothers two, a word to them, Before I'm dead and gone : Be true, be kind, unselfish men, This world is not our home. There's another, not a sister, In the happy days gone by, You'd have known her had you met her I3y the sparkle in her eye. Tell her not to grieve for me When I am dead and gone; My better being doth not lie 'heath monumental stone. We'll meet in that bright world above When earthly turmoils o'er, We'll live hi purest, holiest love Where parting is no •more. --1n a despondent mood, '•Miss Mar- tha McIntyre of Stratford, on Sunday last, a trained nurse,`took her own life while her mother was at church.

The wound was caused : y by the stab t ofc. a knife in the left breast, and had it not- been for the feet, the Crown contends, that the libido of the knife first came 'hi con- fect with the man's winch, the wound might have been fatal.
