FLOYD the i0-months-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. Reese McWilliams.
He has gone, our darling Floyd,
In the spirit land to dwell;
Words of parting have been spoken,
Sadly, as a last farewell.
Here no more our hearts he'll gladden.,
And the sad thought makes a sigh,
We are moved to deeply ponder
On life's blissful bs and by.
Yet we hope again to meet thee
In some far, celestial zone,
Where hopes sky is never clouded,
And sad partings are unknown.
Papa, mamma, do not weep
For Floyd any more.
He has Joined his brother Glen
Over on the other shore.
We are waiting, brother Kenneth,
Ula, Wilma too,
Waiting for you to join us,
When your work on earth is through.
E. Now.
