Mrs. Peter Bruer passes from this life after twenty months illness.

"My flesh and my heart faileth, but God is the strength of heart and my portion forever." Psalms 73:26.

"For whether we live, we live unto the Lord and whether we die, we die unto the Lord. Whether we live, therefore or die, we are the Lord's." Romans 14:8.

Such is the text of the scriptures and in these dying Christian finds comfort and consolation while crossing the vale to the world on high. Such magnanimous loving kindness and buoyant hope in the hour of death by the master was indeed a balm to Mrs. Peter Bruer in the last hours of her life on earth.
