skies have downed
The purple shadows and the
gray of night
Because we know the morning
lies beyond,
And we must wait a little
while for light;
So when grown weary with the
care and strife.
Our loved ones find in sleep the
peace they crave.
We should not weep, but learn
to count this life
A prelude to the one beyond
the grave,'
grave,'
Now, therefore be it resolved;
First; That while a shadow
has fallen here, we bow in
humble submission to His will.
Second; That we extend to
her loved ones our deepest
sympathy and pray God's bles
sings may ever be upon them.
Third; That a copy of these
resolutions be sent to The Dup
lin Times-Progress Sentinel
and a copy kept in the Women
of the Church Historical Binder
in addition to the copy sent to
the family.
