visitors to find Mr. Bridge so strong for his
many years and soNhappy in the love of
his children and devoted friends, and in the

blessed more than it knows in having still
continued in its midst a life SO unstained,
so honorable and so useful. A brief poem

melo,iuus expression of them. We wish
our venerable friends many such happy
reunions.
