"TEXAS CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE, January 12, 1899, p. 14, c. 2

OGLESBY.—Octie Velu, daughter of Bro. and Sister S. C. Oglesby, was born January 6, 1888, and died at their home in Flint, Texas, November 12, 1898.

She was a sweet-spirited, intelligent child, insomuch that to know her was to love her. Strange God would take such tenderness and innocency away from us! Yet the Lord doeth all things well. He who can patiently wait and say, "Thy will be done," will meet loved ones in the sinless summer land. Little Lula, as she was called, was the idol of her father's home. She was greatly loved by her little schoolmates, as was shown by the way her teacher and schoolmates attended her and carried her flowers during her sickness.

We would say to father, mother, brothers and sisters, be faithful and one day you will meet little Lula around the great white throne above.

A FRIEND."
