IN MEMORIAM
Albert Terral was born in Winn Parish, La.; departed this life Feb. 6, 1899.

It is sad to record the death of one so young, just started in life with the anticipations of a bright future. Truly hath it been said, "Death loves a shining mark." For in the bright promises of a long and useful life, he was called to other fields in the home beyond the sky.

In the home circle his bright smiles and tender sympathy soothed the sorrow and cares of loved ones. He was a companion to the father, mother, and loved wife and two little babes. His kind voice is hushed on earth, but in Heaven be will sing the songs he loved,; throughout eternity.

We thank God for the beautiful life which fulfilled its mission. Nor has his influences ended, it will live on for ever. We sorrowing ones can draw aside the curtains of future, and look into the angel face as he smiles and waves his beckoning hands calling us to the land of love, where sorrows are no more.

He joined the Baptist church at Ragan during the pastorate of his father, (C. V. Terral) as a church member he was consistent, earnest and profound. His traits of true manhood, won for him the esteem, love and friendship of all who knew him, and well may it be said: To know him was to love him, which was fully manifested by the large crowd that attended the funeral.

He was deeply impressed when first taken sick, and for some time before, said he would not live long.

The sad wife, father, mother and two brothers, feel all alone. He was to his dear wife but 3 years. They miss him! No one can fill his place, but may we all be made better trying to imitate his example of living for God. God chose to pluck the jewel in the morning of existence, and we ask Him in the riches of his grace to help us to live to meet Albert in "that far away Thome of the soul."

May the bereaved family be watered by the dew of His mercy from Heaven, and healed with the balm of his gracious love.

"When we see a precious bloom
That we tended with such care,
Rudely taken from our bosom,
How our aching hearts despair."

Sleep on dear Albert, but not forever. There will be a glorious dawn. We shall meet to part no more In the resurrection morn.

A CHUM.
