Farewell, dear babes, it must be SO;
Ye've made void that can't be filled:
Your parents anguish none can know;
Their throbbing hearts can e'cr be stilled.
We search the house, we cant be found;
We rise at morn and wait for you;
We wait, but ah ye sleep too sound,
Ye will not rise, what shall we do?
"Joseph is not;" his sixteen days
OF suffering and of pain are DER;
He sleeps, he tarries, long he stays,
He will awake and rise no more
And Olive Ann, SO blithe and CAV,
When shall we hear thy footsteps nigh;
Good bye good bye you used to say,
Good bye my dear, long good bye
Your dust is sleeping side by side,
Sleep on dear babes, take quiet rest,
Till Gubriel's trump sounds far and wide,
| Then rise sweet babes and Join the rest.

LIN, son OF William and Rhoda Rugglcs, aged

These three, who met in love
So often here below,
We trust have met above
Where heavenly graccs grow.
Orange is gone-thc tie is rven
His parents mourn through all the day,
The cup is bitter; but It's given
why despair, ye parents, say ?
There is glorious morn to break
Their sleeping dust shall then arise
While they in Jesus image wake,
To dwell with him above the skies. Comm.
