The following lines were composed
by a member of the club:
We would lay wreath of memory on her bier,
While Borrowing friends are twining chaplets
here.
Her memory, like some pure and holy light
Kept alive in our hearts will improve us.
Hope shall look fairer and truth more bright
When we think how she lived and loved us.
AS fresher flowers the sod shall perfume
Where our dear dead friend is lying,
Our hearts shall borrow lovelier bloom
From the image she left us uudying.
