Minnie, a bright six year old daughter of John Lee, was buried on Friday. She had been attending school at Olivet and some two weeks ago was prostrated by pneumonia, resulting in her death. This is a sad bereavement to the parents who realize that their eldest born and idol of the household faded away like a stricken flower. They have the sympathy of their many friends in their sorrow. And may they realize that the lovely flower, freed from blight and death, is transplanted to bloom on the eternal shore.
