Northcutt - Walter

Walter Glen, little son of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. T. Northcutt, was born at Crawfordsville, Ind., March 16, 1899, and died two and one half miles southeast of Ladoga, Wednesday, Sept. 4, 1901, at 9:30 a.m. of brain fever, aged 2 years, 5 months and 18 days.  He leaves a father, mother, an infant sister and a host of friends and relatives to mourn his loss. For although his time on this earth was but two short years, he had by his sweet and loving way gained the friendship of many, who, with his bereaved parents, will miss the patter of his little footsteps.  But we know that he has gone to that upper and better kingdom, for God has said: “Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of heaven.  The funeral was conducted by Rev. Gill at the home, Thursday afternoon at 2 o’clock and the remains of little Walter were laid to rest in the Wesley Chapel Cemetery. -s

Although at the time of her death she was only five months old, yet she will be greatly missed in the home, but we should remember that our loss is Heaven’s gain. She has gone to be with her little brother, Walter, who preceded her to the better world about four months ago. This should be a warning of the certainty of death. The young, the old and the middle aged must die. And let us so live that when our death summons shall come that we may be ready to take up our eternal abode with Jesus as was little Mabel.
