    Died, in Fleming county, near here, Sept. 21, of typhoid fever, Miss Rebekah Kissick, aged 20 years. She was the youngest daughter of the late Henry Kissick, who died only three weeks before the summons came for Bekah to come up higher. “My soul longeth, yea even panteth, for the courts of the Lords.” She was a member of the Church of Christ and will be sadly missed at our meetings. We can truly say
    Dearest sister, thou has left us:
    Here thy loss we deeply feel;
    But it is God who has bereft us;
    He can all our sorrows heal.
