Minerva Lenora Gustafson
Obituary.
Died, at their residents, of croup, Minerva Lenora, fourth daughter of Andrew and Lenora Gustafson, aged four years, ten months and eight days.
Farewell, Darling, thou hast left us,
Gone to join the Angle Band,
Where no storms of earth can meet thee,
In the far-off happy land.
Dry thy tears, weeping parents,
For thy darling is at rest.
Safely sheltered from Earth's trials,
On a loving Savior's breast.
S. McKIBBIN
