Civil Service, who departed this life on 3d May, A. D, 1824, aged 3 years, 8 months and 1 day. A most promising and engaging child; the pride and joy of his parents, who fondly, but Alas! vainly hoped, that the sweet and fair blossom would have timely ripened into fruit. Their sorrows and affliction may be unspeakable, yet softened and subdued by the conviction that their departed darling, is happy in the realms of bliss. |
