The little hat was hanging there
Upon the vacant wall,
"A wistful eye was gazing
At The loved memorial;
She loved it very fondly
Though it beauty long had fled,
For the one that once had worn It
Was sleeping with the dead.
Twas a mother thus lamenting
Her only darling child,
For often had, his little songs
The lonely hours beguiled;
And the hat so worn and %tattered,
That hung upon the wall,
Brought fresh into her memory
The cherished one OF all.
She weeps and smiles alternate,
As she views it Ger and o'ef,
For a happy thought comes to her,
Though she cannot see him more
In this world, where ties are severed,
She will meet him once again,
And dwell nearer to her darling,
Where there's neither grief nor pain.
