IN
MEMORIAM
Eva Millicent, daughter of A.L. and Fannie B. Whitney, was
born in Cook, Johnson County, Nebraska, and died March 11th, 1908 at the
age of 11 years and 24 days. Thus passed away the spirit of one, who had
lived but a few years in the flesh, to the higher sphere to suffer and
die no more. We knew her as a sweet little girl who had her hopes and
expectations like all others, but has been called on before and surely
is now in that blessed realm of pure spirits, far above our present
estate. “She is not dead, but sleepeth,” for spirits never die. “Suffer
little children to come unto me, for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven.”
Rest on, little body, in the grave, till the Master calleth for thee to
reunite with the spirit gone on before.
In Jesus Christ all
things are well. We bury the young body away, but only for a time; till
the Lord calls and it will answer. We bid thee good bye for the present,
only to meet in the morning. Good-bye, Eva, good-bye, and may God bless
those who tarry awhile longer behind.
-- J.T. Jenkins
