Dunlevy-
On Tuesday, 7th instant, Henry De C. Dunlevy, aged 10 years 10 months and 16 days. Thus has passed away, suddenly, the hope and joy and pride of another home. A manly boy, last week in the flush of boyish strength and ambition, building plans for the future when he should take a man's place in the world and do a man's work, now laid low. All these plans and all the cherished expectations that clustered around him, these laid low: but better brighter ones blossom from out their grave, and the life that is uncompleted on earth we know will be gloriously developed in Heaven. "I would like to go to Heaven" he said only a month ago-And when the loving one that leaned on him and said "and leave me?" he replied "Not that but it is so much better there." "To depart and be with Christ is far better." For we know that truth and goodness and love have winder room and more congenial atmosphere there. So the wish, so sung, "I want to be an angel" is now realized. Earth has one treasure less: Heaven an angel more" His funeral will take place this (Thursday) afternoon at two o'clock, from the residence of his grandmother, Mrs. Susan E. Placide, No. 319 Madison avenue. His friends and the friends of the family are invited to attend.
