Last Tuesday night the spirit of little Bertie Halsey winged its way from this world and passed quietly and peacefully into the arms of his Saviour. The death of this darling little boy seems so sad under the circumstances that we all feel the blow.  We know his father.   He was the companion of our youth, and we feel sad that he could not have been with his precious child when his bright spirit took its flight into the land of angels.  But this could not be.  He was too far away.  However, let us assure him that his baby boy had all the care and attention that skill and loving hearts could accomplish.  His little sinless soul has gone to a brighter and better world than this, and the father's pet, the mother's joy, and the grandfather's idol is at rest, and stands now by that beautiful river on those other shores, waiting and watching for those who loved him here on earth to join him.  Sleep on, darling Bertie, too pure and lovely for earth, the Saviour called thee to join the angel band.
