OBITUARY Loin Grace, daughter of Jonas und May Fisher was born In Decatur, Ind., Jan. 7, 1902. Died at the hospital in Galllpolse, Ohio, May 21, 1902. Her ago was 20 years, 4 months, 21 days. She had been afflicted for more than seven years and of recent months had expressed herself to her mother in these words, “I wonder why my atllc tlons are upon me?" then bracing up and endeavoring to make the best of it all. She expressed her hope in Christ and the world ta come. Her chief joy and delight was always in sacred books and bible stories with sacred songs, which she sang and I played. When visiting with her mother a few weeks ago and they were to soon . part she said, “I wonder if I will ever • see you people again?” When the ; mother replied, "yes we will see you i again before long.” And she in an- • wer said: "Well if we do not we can ■ met in the better world above.” As mourners she leaves the follow- - ing: Father and mother, two brothers - Glen and Franklin; one sister, Ireta, • a grand mother on her mother’s side with many other kin and friends. r ’■When we leave this world of changes, When we leave this world of care, , We shall find our missing loved ones, In our Father's mansions fair. r Call not back the dear departed, 1 Anchored safe where storms are o’er - On the border land we left them, r Soon to meet and part no more. a , A bridge has been designed to spar t the Hudson River at New York which will be the most important gateway tc . the West. Its lower deck will earn . 11 railroad tracks, its upper deck roadway, two and a half times at wide as Fifth Avenue, will take cart of 16 streams of vehicles. There will still be room on the upper deck fol j four surface car lines and two side walks. Although the bridge will cosl • $130,000,000 it is believed it will paj for itself by cutting the cost of bring ing goods across the Hudson from $2. 28 to 50 cents a ton.
