DIED.
In the town of Orion, March 30th, 1875, JAMES BURDINE, infant son of Simon S. and Mary M. Blake, aged one month, six days and eighteen hours.
Just budding into life,
Ephemeral the strife.
He lived only to die,
But was waltred on high;
Though entwined in our love
He was carried above,
Quite as lovely a flower
As blooms in Eden's bower;
The body but a clod,
The spirit at home with God.
Orion ROBERT SMITH.
