Georgie E. Blair (22 Jan 1875 - 5 May 1881)

DIED

BLAIR - May 5th, 1881, GEORGIE E. BLAIR, third daughter of Jno. A. and Allie M. Blair, of scarlet fever, a rarely gifted child; aged 6 years, 3 months and 13 days.

TO MRS. ALLIE M. BLAIR ON THE DEATH OF GEORGIE.
I Peter I,24: "For all flesh is grass; and all
the glory of man as the flower of the grass; the
grass withereth and the flower thereof fadeth
away."

The beautiful floweret that bloomed
In thy earthyl home so bright
Now mouldering lies entomb'd
Awaiting the mortal blight.
No more will thy arms enfold
That delicate bud that was given,
Nor press the form of heavenly mould
To cherish or fit for heaven.
Then who would bid the weep no more
For this the first one gone,
Though thou canst call her never more
From 'mid the heavenly throng.
Yet, in thy heart sweet memories set,
And hopes that withered lie,
Thou hast a gem in coronet
Before the throne on high.

E. M. B.

William Prescott Blair (9 Sep 1880 - 8 Jan 1895)

Death of a Bright Little Boy.

Willie Prescott, the second son of Mr. and Mrs. John A. Blair, died very suddenly last Tuesday morning about 5 o'clock, at the age of 14 year and 4 months. Willie had not been well since last Friday, when he complained of having a head-ache. Nothing was thought of it as he was subject to head-aches, but on Saturday he was not so well and a physician was summoned, who prescribed for him, and he was at no time considered dangerously ill. The moring of his death, as his parents were seated near him, he felt for his heart, gasped and all was over. Willie was a bright, gentlemanly little fellow and was loved by all who knew him. His young mind was always filled with good, hid life was unstained and left bright evidence that his home was on the other shore.

The parents and brothers and sisters have the heartfelt sympathy of all in their sad bereavement. The funeral will take place from the residence on Orchard avenue this afternoon at 1:30 conducted by Revs. Reed and Scott.
