Such was the last words of my only dear sister. Oh why is it that the good and lovely of the land must so soon bud us all adieu. Oh! what a change has there been in this vicinity the last few years. One death ahs succeeded another so often that scarcely one of the certain class of friends who with Laura have spent so many happy hours, visiting, riding, Vc, other pleasant ways are now left on this Earth many others have gone to distant lands. They are gone all gone. "Oh what is life 'this like a flower that blossoms and is gone"
