Miss Nora, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Hayes, was born May 15, 1888 and died January 22, 1904, age 15 years.
Nora had a kind, good disposition, was obedient to her parents, giving them but little trouble. She leaves a loving father and mother, with a host of friends and relatives to mourn her early departure.
She always attended Sunday school and singing and will be greatly missed by her teacher, class and mates. Her sickness was only of about three weeks and she bore it with patience. Everything was done that could be by skilled and tender hands to arrest the disease yet nothing could stay the monster of death.
Thus the cold hand of death has entered another home and has taken a loving daughter and sister. No more are her sweet smiles to be seen around the fireside of that home. Abl we we did not know the separation would come so soon and sudden. But our ways are not God's ways and our thoughts are not his thoughts. Farewell, Nora, thou art gone but not fogotten.
