Miss Ella Sparrow Cra (Contributed) The life that finished its earthly course on Tuesday, March 5, when Ella Sparrow Cragin, after a few days' ill- ness, passed from an active life here into the world beyond, had been filled full of unselfish service. So marked has been her devetion to her ‘high standard of duty, that all who knew her feit the unwavering force of char- acter which has been shown in all her intercourse with others. Sorrow and regreat foumd general expression when the word was. passed from one to another, on Monady, that Miss Cragin ‘was seriously ill. And, later, when her death was announced at noon on Tuesday, there was a sense of personal loss, and of genuine grief in many Colchester homes. Although born in New York City, in Coichester, and she was actively nearly all of her life had been spent indentified with the best interests of the eighth grade of the public school ‘when the private school where she had been a pupil was discontinued; and began her course in Bacon Academy while the late F. E. Burnette was its principal. Later, she attended Mrs. Life's School in Rye, N. Y. That she continued her studies at the Academy, after her graduation at Rye Seminary, taking up one or two branches for which there had been no time previ- ously, was_characteristic of her atti- tude toward any opportunity of growth which presented itself all through-her life/ At this time, Mr. George N. Tracy, of Gildersléeve, was the prin- cipal. Miss Cragin is survived by her mother, Mrs. A. E. Cragin, whose constant companion she has been for many years; by her sister, Mrs. Geo- rge W. Reynolds, of Hartford; and by her brother, Bdwin B. Cragin, M. D., of New York City. The funeral services were held at her late home in Colchester on Fri- day afternoon, March 8, at half-past three, the large company of friends by their presence testifying to the high esteem in which she was held. The bearers were Edwin B. Cragin, M. D., of New York; Lewis E. Spar- row, of Pleasantville, N. Y.; Rev. G ‘W. Reynolds, D. D. of Hartford; S. P. Willard, of Coichester; Edward T. Bunyan and Edwin R.

The beautiful flowers were sugges- tive of one of the comstamt joys of her life, and a comforting thought is that more than one of the friends at this Jast service felt a greater faith in the life to come possession of their hearts, the faith that enlarges the soul's vision, B come only from Him ‘who is the Way, whom she serve Her life truly embodlad her belief in the Christ who came “not to be mini- stered unto, but to minister.” MYSTIC Henry Welles Dead in Brooklyn, N.

Tn the Sunday School, as the girls of her class grew older, and left home, another group took their place, The members of her class could be relied upon, always, to help in carrying out school programmes. They were loyal to their teacher, and interested in Bible study, many of them becoming teachers in their turn, here and else- where, and it has ever been noticable that most of them early became mem- | bers of the church, ,which is one ot lhe great tests of successful Christian teaching. Her class confided in her, and felt that she was their friend.
