In memory of our brother, who died
February 5, 1925.
—fc
How sad it was, the parting;
But God, He knoweth best.
For now so justly he is sleeping
In joy, peace, and rest.
2.
His life was short but faithful,
His heart so true and kind,
But he's left this sinful world
A happier home to find.
4.
Sleep today, oh, early fallen,
In thy green and narrow bed.
Dirges from the pine and cypress
Mingle with the tears we shed.
*
We shall meet, but we shall miss him,
There will be one vacant chair;
We shall linger to caress him
As we breathe our evening prayer.
.6.
Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep,
From which none ever wake to weep.
A calm and undisturbed repose,
Unbroken by the last of foes.
6.
We hope to meet him in heaven,
Where parting is no more,
To dwell there forever,
On that celestial shore.

In memory of our mother, who diftl
May 30, 1824.
U.
Gentle bands that never wear,
Toiling in love'* vineyard sweet,
Eyes that seemed forever
When our eyes they chance to meet.
2.
Tender, patient, brave, devoted,
This was always mother's way.
Could her worth in gold be quoted,
As we think of her today?
8.
There shall never be another
Quite so tender, quite so kind,
As the patient little mother—
Nowhere on earth you will find.
4. 4
Her affection duplicated
None so proud if you are fine.
Could her worth be overstated?
Not by any words of mine.
5.
Down the years how oft we've tried
her,
We've been selfish, heedless, bland,
Yet with love alone to guide her,
She was never once unkind.
6.
In all the world, go where you will,
You'll never find another
Who'll stick to you through good or ill
—And love you like a mother.
7.
In* ail the world,though wealth com
mands
For you the work of others, *
You'll never find a pair of hands
To toil for you like mother's.
8.
Ihen, why should we dread the sting
of death?
If Jesus bids us come?
Our spirits fly on balmy wings
To mansions in the skies.
