Infant daughter of Fannie and Ralph Condon, was born in South Brooksville, August 14th, 1892, and after an illness of two days was borne in angels' arms to heaven, October 18th.

Thus crystallize on earth the gems of heaven's purity, and thus God transfers the ender and pure to a more congenial clime.

Her stay was but short; yet long enough to entwine about her little self the parents' tenderest love: long enough to kindle a joy within the home which could only be perpetuated amid the tears of holy resignation which says to God, "Thy will be done," and the deeper joy of knowing that "of such is the kingdom of heaven."

She had been with them long enough to say, "See God's ideal of purity," and by the crystallizing influence of her little life is silently yet effectually saying, "Mother, Father, up, up this way, this way, come to me." We can but bow our heads and respond to these little voices, Yes bye and bye, in God's good time.

Inscription

Tender Shepherd, Thou hast still'd
Now Thy little lamb's long weeping;
Ah how peaceful, pale, and mild,
In its narrow bed 'tis sleeping,
And no sigh of anguish sore
Heaves that little bosom more.
