Information: Martha Ellen Parsons, daughter of A. A. and M. E Parsons, was born July 25, 1916, died May 13, 1917, aged 9 months and 18 days.  She was a patient little sufferer, having been sick nine weeks.  We cannot understand why little ones so dear to our hearts are called from us, but our loss is Heaven's gain.  We are glad we can find consolation in the words Jesus said, Suffer the little children to come unto me for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven.""  She is survived by her parents, one brother and two sisters, viz:  Eslie Willard Parsons, age 13 years; Clara Ethel Parsons, age 11 years, and Alexie Maybell Parsons, age 9 years.     ""Oh, we long to meet our darling       For a long, long, sweet embrace,      Where the little feet are waiting      And we will meet her face to face.""                Rev. C. W. Ramsey
