In memory of little Earnest--infant son of Caleb and Mary Best, age 11 months, departed this life June 17;was sick but a short time. All was done for little Earnest that love could do. But alas, death calls for its own. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Taylor. The remains of the budding rose were laid to rest in Carpenter's Graveyard.
"Young mother and father, he is gone
His dimpled cheek no more will touch thy breast;
No more the music tone
Float from his lips to thine all fondly pressed
His smile and happy laugh are lost to thee; earth must his mother and his pillow be"
