Wambold.-On the 22d of March, in Waterloo Co., Ont., Herbert Newton H., son of Isaac A. and Emma M. Wambold, aged 11 months and 26 days. Funeral services by Moses Bowman in German from Psa. 16:6, "The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places: yea, I have a goodly heritage." and by Daniel Wismer in English, from the words, "Be ye also ready." Dear little Herbie had always been a bright and hearty boy, but was snatched away from our arms in a few short hours. In the evening, when his mamma had made him ready to sleep, he stretched his little arms to papa to be taken snugly to bed; but before midnight he lay in convulsions, which were followed by others and in about nine hours death released him.
"Dearest Herbie, thou has left us,
Here thy loss we deeply feel;
But 'tis God who has bereft us,
He can all our sorrows heal.
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life has fled,
Then with joy in heaven to greet thee,
Where no farewell tear is shed."
