| Mrs. J. H. Hahn Dead.
i On Monday night Mrs. J. H.
! Hahn died at her home in Brazos
; Valley from peritonitis, and the
remains were laid away in Brazos
Vallev cemetery Wednesday.
Mrs. Hahn had long been a
resident of our county and had
reared a large family of children,
most of whom are now grown up,
and as the death dew gathered
on her marble brow, around her
bedside gathered her girls and
boys—always girls and boys to
her, though now grown to ma-
ture years with boys and girls of
their own. The Jife so long inter-
woven with theirs, with tearful
eyes they watched as it slowly
but surely passed into the great
beyond. The love of a mother
for her children passeth human
understanding. The boys and
girls that gathered about the
bedside of this dying mother and
so bravely foughfc the death an-
gel, long ago passed out from the
home circle. Business cáres and
their own home circles have en-
crouched upon their time, may*
have robbed mother of their
companionship, but she was ever
just the same; rejoicing in their
successes and grieving at their
misfortunes. They may have
grown away from .her, but she
never from them; they were still
her boys and girls. We knoW
that years hence the memory of
her unselfish devotion will make
them better men and better wo-
men and her precepts be their
guidingstar.
Vain is any^attempt to measure
the loss of a mother to her child-
ren; after all the poets have sung
and lovers dreamed, out-
side of heaven there is nolovelike
mother-love. We believe the
tender care devoted to those
nearest and dearest went with
her to the better land, and in the
possibilities of eternity, may be
needed hereafter. We can fan-
cy her awaiting them in that
place prepared for the Lord's
chosen ones in bright array.
To the bereaved ones we ten-
der our heartfelt sympathy.
Mrs. Ernest Rollins isup from
Abilene on a visit to relatives and
friends.
