Died, on the 12th of July, near Louisville, Edmund Sehon, aged two years, infant son of Wm. H. and Emily Merriwether; and on the 21st of the same month, in the 4th year of her age, Anna, daughter of the same. How truly may we say, death claims all seasons, all ages • he calls, and there is no defense; all alike must obey his summons. Innocence and youth cannot avert the destroyer from his course. In the present instance, two of the loveliest children are his victims, and are torn from the kind embrace of most affectionate and devoted parents. These were indeed precious and lovely, beauteous plants, just unfolding to the air of earth, when called away to bloom in a nobler, purer, and brighter home. God has taken them to himself. They have entered into the blissful mansion, over whose lofty portals is inscribed the language of Him, who, while blessing infancy here, declared, “Of such is the kingdom of heaven.” “They have passed from earth, but we must not lament them, Nor morn their return to a holier clime; They but lingered below until He who had sent them, Recalled them to Eden in morning’s sweet prime.” The truly bereaved • yea, doubly bereaved and heartstricken parents, as they stand weeping at the grave of their departed, may look up and rejoice. The voice of the Son of God is there heard proclaiming, “I am the resurrection and the life; where I live, ye shall live also.” Let them weep not, then, as those who have no hope; for though their children shall return to them no more, they may do to them. May God spare to our afflicted friends their remaining children, long to be a blessing and comfort, and grant that their present great bereavement may be fully sanctified to their present and eternal good.

Meriweather died at his residence in Hickman county, Ky., on the 22nd of July – in the fiftieth year of his age. Brother Meriweather was a native of Louisa county, Va. In 1810 his father emigrated to the West, and settled in Jefferson county, Ky. In 1839 brother M. moved to Hickman county, where he lived until his earthly pilgrimage closed. I was informed by his bereaved and much afflicted wife, that he professed faith in Christ in the year 1820, and joined the Methodist Episcopal Church, of which he remained a consistent and exemplary member until his removal to the church triumphant. May God comfort sister Meriweather, and bless her affectionate and dutiful children – for such we know them to be – and finally, when they fail upon earth, take them to himself to meet with their best friend where parting will be no more.
