be a wise and safe counselor.

hold her memory long; in the social

measureless loss; and every one who
called her friend will bear through the
coming years of life an unhealed
wound:

humble submission to the Divine VIII

extend our heartfelt sympathy to our
brother in this his irreparable loss.

One more star has set,
And cur hearts are sorely grieving
For we've laid her low to rest
And with emblems bright and shining
To the hall of mirth and prayer,
We shall miss our dear loved sister,
