"December 25th, 1884, at nine o'clock a.m., Roxie Ruth, infant daughter of James K. and Louisa Garner, aged 1 year and 20 days.
'Ere sin could harm and sorrow fade,
Death came with friendly care;
The opening bud to heaven conveyed,
And bade it blossom there.
This lovely bud, so young, so fair
Called hence by early doom,
Just came to show how sweet a flower
In Paradise would bloom.
By Her Mother
Funeral Saturday, December 27th, at two o'clock p.m., from parents' residence, No. 711 G street southwest. Funeral private.
