GONE WEST.
As we go to press the news has just reached us of the passing hence of Miss Butterick, of Ashburton. For over 15 years the faithful “White Ribbon" Agent of that Union, a rarely beautiful soul, ami one in whom every good cause had a sympathiser and helper. Fuller notice will appear in next issue AWAY. I cannot say, and I will not say. That she is dead- she is just away; With a cheery smile, and a wave of the hand. She has wandered into an unknown land. And you T) you, who the wildest yearn For the old-time step and the glad return, Think of her faring on, as dear In the love of There as the love of Here; Think of her still as the same, T say; She is not dead she is just away.
