      DIED.

      In Hudson, February 16th, 1875, George, son of Jesse and Sarah Strang, aged 4 years, 2 months and 20 days.

      All his suffering now is ended,
      And the Saviour’s voice said come;
      Peace and hope were sweetly blended,
      In his words “I’m going home.”

      Though the tomb may hold the casket,
      Yet the jewel would not stay;
      Great the grief; Though God has asked it,
      Yet George can’t mold back to clay.

      Now his spirit free from glooming,
      Roams the paths that Angel’s trod;
      Jesus took him; now he’s blooming
      In the Paradise of God.
