TO tho Memory OF Mrs. H. c. FeldniAn.
worthy mother, wife, beloved by all,
without fepr0Ach; we homage pay to thee
Would we as ready for the funeral pail,
To leave-from worldly prejudice free
he best of ala sacred memory.
The God who gave, Withdraws the blessing sent:
And who should ask why it should not thus be-.
Though heartaches needs must follow, be
content
To know that all is we'll -must be to Hiswil bent
A sadness comes and who could quell the SWAY.
AZ thoughts Of the departed ever rise,
And yet 'twere wrong to suffer 1t to stay
Too long supreme-Give not to death its prize.
Bnt rather know in death love never dies.
Know thata life well spent must find reward.
Then strive to stay the tears of weering eyes;
While from our midst, removal proved 10 hard,
No warning came to her, and yet how we'll pre-.
We deck thy bier with flowers. Natures gems
In death caress thee, as in life thy care,
Emblems of affection and loves diadems.
"A decoration sweet yet not full share
Were they to strive thy life work to compare.
But may they speak of grateful feelings given
In language but to flowers alone aware
To tell of love t. show which all have striven.
Ioicherished mother, wife and friend consigned
to heaven.
