Yet death can- ‘not part us from these boyvs, for there is a tie that can never be severed; an indefinable something that lives on alw s; a sort of spiritual love that will never be deserted, “To the young man's mayor of the city and representing my own fatherhood, T say that I feel for her, and realize the strength and magnitude of the blow that has fal- len. 1 know that she is away back to the days when as a | child his baby hands first twined ! themselves about her heartstrings; she sees him first going out to school to learn his lessons, then going into the world to take up his role with the rest of the young men. She sees him leading a good, clean life; she sees him as thousands of other mothers see their bovs now departed, scarcely a child yesterday, and todas having given his life that our lives might be protected. “To his father I say that I know how he feels, and 1 realize the loss {that is his.
