Christophel - May 20th, and June 10th, in Elkhart Co, Ind, of scarlet fever, John, son, and Emma, daughter of Daniel and Anna Christopel, aged 3 years and 8 days, and 1 year, 10 months and 24 days.
Ye mourning saints whose streaming tears,
Flow o'er your children dead,
Say not in transport of despair
That all your hopes are fled.
While cleaving to that darling dust
In fond distress you lie;
Rise and with joy and reverence view
A heavenly parent nigh.
Though your young branches torn away,
Like withered trunks ye stand;
With fairer verdure shall ye bloom
Touched by th' Almighty hand.
