FROM OVER THE COUNTY.

BARGERSVILLE.

––––

Georgia, the three-year-old daughter of John Robards, was called over on Saturday morning at five o’clock by our Heavenly Father to join the happy little band of angels, three of whom have only been gone a few days. They were members of a little band of singers who often delighted their friends with sweet songs. Georgia will now join them singing, “There’s Music in my Soul,” a favorite song that she could often be heard singing in this life. But we know by the promise of our Lord she is in heaven. It was only a few minutes before she entered the gates that she sang that beautiful hymn. Her remains were placed in a snow white casket and laid away in the Hopewell cemetery.
