Died. ROBINSON. - On the 16th of March, 1876, Henry, son of Rev. W. A. ROBINSON, aged 14 [sic] years. He was one of those interesting children whom everybody loved, and his sudden departure for the world beyond, has brought sadness and sorrow to bereaved hearts. Yes,
There is weeping on earth for the lost,
There is bowing in grief to the ground,
But rejoicing and praise is the sanctified [....?]
For a spirit in Paradise found!
Though brightness has passed from the earth,
Yet a star is new-born in the sky,
And a soul has gone home to the land of its birth
Where are pleasures and fullness of joy!
And a new harp is strung, and a new song is given
To the breezes that float o'er the gardens of Heaven
