In memory OF John Z. Anderson; who died
April 18th, 1880, 6 p. m, 10 years old;
Why do we weep and mourn and sigh
That this fair flower should have to die.
He 10 not dead but only gone
TO meet his maker at the thrown.
'ris true he suffered death and pain,
But still he liveth yet again:
He liveth and never more shall die,
BE lives to meet you there on high
He Is so sweet his mother said
Too good TO be numbered With the dead
Bot he shall come that mother 70 meet
And walk the golden shining street.
I'm going away 10 leave you mother,
H0 saw the tears as he said goOd bye,
Here take this handkerchief mother
And wipe those tears from your eye.
Sister sing TO me, sing one sweet song,
For Tn going away 10 leave you ere long.
Oh, no, dear brother, II will hurt your head
II you will not Il will hurt my feelings
instead.
And sieler Mary one thing / ask Of thee
You love me | know and viii tpks care
of me
And II / get we'll and / hope l shall
Hereafter l shall DO more careful.
Tia hard TO give thee up dear John,
And 10 show my love to thee
At the head Of thy dear little gave
Iii plant your favoriis cedar tree.
Ny brother, oh, my brother, how hard TO
leave thee
Who In childhood was my constant
playmate
And now iis not very often / see thee
Pray prepare 70 mset me 81 the golden
gate.
Poor boy he tried 10 show bic love,
Although he could not spsak 10 tell
He threw his arms around Mays neck
Aud smiled IS II Il say, He doth all things
we'll.
He's gone, our pride, our hope, our all
like q rose bud shaken BY the wind
Taken from us to bs laid 10 his pail,
Taken 10 his youth with little or no sin,
Nv 0od thou hast gave and thou hast taken
away
We reluctantly spbmIt 10 thy power
Take him thine aud thtqe only we say
Till by thy will We meet sgain on high.

And strangers in the room.

She led a wretch d life,
For grief and wo- hAa broke her heart,
Who'd be 3 drunkard's wife"
Nv children they stood eiiaging 'sound,
Nor scarcely drew their breath;
They knelt and kissed Der once warm lips,
Which were nov cold In death.
Oh, papa dear come wake her Hp
