Obituary

Died-In Kirtland Lake co. Ohio, on the 23rd ult. Elder Oliver Granger aged 49 years.

Lines, suggested by intelligence of the death of Elder Oliver Granger; and are respectfully inscribed to his mourning relatives;

By Miss Eliza. R. Snow.

Hark! from afar, a funeral knell He sleeps-his troubles here, are o'er-

Moves on the breeze-its echoes swell He sleeps where earthly ills no more

The chorus for the dead! Will break the slumber's rest!

A consort's moans are in the sound, His dust is laid beneath the sod,

And sobs of children, weeping round His spirit has return'd to God,

A parent's dying bed! To mingle with the blest.

But one lov'd child was in a land Death sunders every tender tie-

Far, far away-the parting hand, Pierc'd by his shaft, life's prospects lie

In death she did not press! Like masts, by tempests cleft!

But ah! she mourns a fa [after] her dear- But hope points forward to a scene

His tenders words, no more she'll hear, Where sorrow will not intervene,

Nor meet his fond caress! Nor friends, of friends, be reft.

He's gone!-his work on earth is done- The Savior conquer'd death: Although

His battle fought-his race is run: It slays our friends and lays them low:

Blest is the path the trod; Cloth'd on immortal bloom

For he'd espous'd the glorious cause When Jesus Christ shall come to reign,

In prompt obedience to the laws They'll burst their icy bands in twain.

Of the eternal God. And triumph o'er the tomb.
