     were both taken  sick about the same time and in the same manner, by dizziness,
     and both died on the Wednesday following. From the circumstances it was supposed
     they had taken poison; some suppose in beer which the had drank; but the friends of the
     deceased are unable to account for the sickness, rejecting entirely the idea of their
     being poison in the beer, as others partook of it in the manner as they did. A post

     as to the cause of death.

                                         Rest dearest child, oh, greatly rest!

                                               Altho' they body sleeps in dust.

                                         No more shall sickness wring they brow,
                                                Nor anguish wake the feeble moan;
                                         From all the sufferings here below
                                                Unto they saviors arms-thou'st flown.

                                         O, lovely child for thee, for thee
                                                Repiningly we should not weep;
                                         For with thy god thou'lt ever be--
                                               Secure He will they spirit keep.

                                         Yes, heaven is they eternal home,
                                                And angels they companions are;
                                         The fields of bliss with the  thou'lt roam--
                                                 Oh may our spirits join thee there!
