Oregonian April 2,1893
Death of Miss DeHon
Died-At midnight on the 21st inst.,at the home of her father,231 Arthur 
street,Miss Prudence L.DeHon,aged 20 years.
Iin the death of Miss DeHon a wide deep gap has been made in her home and in 
the hearts of the many who know and love her.Her rare ands winsome ways had 
attracted a host of warm and devoted friends,whose hearts are sore rent.
Death has here given a rude shock,to a fair and beuatiful life,that was full 
of hope,to a heart that was bound up with with hers in prosepctive happiness 
and joy;to a home where she waa tenderly loved and which is so sadly desolate 
by her going;to a large circle fo friends ,by whom she was admired for the 
charming graces of her character and winning ways.
Although life to her had so many and such strong attachments,yet death to her 
was not a king of terrors.Often during her sickness she sang"Jesus,lover of my 
soul,let me to thy bosom fly."
Thus with a song of vicotry upon he rlips,did this maiden go down through the 
valley and the shadow.It was the noon of a dark night here-it was the noon of 
eternal day there.
