WHEREAS, Our Heavenly Father, in His infinite mercy and wisdom, has seen fit to translate from earth to heaven our beloved sister, Miss Lizzie Hearne;

Resolved, That sister Lizzie Hearne was interested in the advancement of our Redeemer’s kingdom, and always ready to work for the cause;

Resolved, That by the death of our sister the church has lost an earnest and faithful attendant, the Young People at Work a sincere and zealous member and the Sunday school a punctual untiring, and energetic worker;

Resolved, That we tender to the bereaved father and mother, brothers anci sisters, our heartfelt sympathy, and trust that they may find consolation and strength in an abiding faith and in the hope that the daughter and sister is not lost to them forever, but has only gone before to that heavenly home where her Savior dwells, to that place where the weary may find eternal rest and where sorrows and partings can never come.
