IN MEMOlsIAM.

Bernard Holmes, who died year ago Jan. 5, 1902.
Gone. but not forgotten my sou loved so well,
His toll earth is over gone with Jesus to dwell;
1 am SO sad without him, no pleasure ON earth no
more,
shore.
In loving remembrance of my dear mother Mrs.
Da vid Lippy who departed this life one year ago,
Jan. q, 1902
Dear mothers gone forever,
Like the happy childhood days.
And the loving voice shall never
In our homes be heard again.
Tears from my eyes are streaming,
And sorrow shades our brow;
Oh, blame us not for weeping,
We have no mother now.
Our dear mother has left US,
Yes she's left this world of care;
But, oh, how we miss dear mother,
When see her vacant chair.
Home is sad; Oh. God, how dreary.
Lonely, lonesome, every spot;
Listening for her voice till weary,
Weary for we hear ii not.
Deep gloom is now more gloomy,
Twilight lengthens into shade;
Nearer now the hour is coming,
We shall be beside you laid.
What is home without mother.
BY HER DAUGHTER. EMMA l..
In loving remembrance of our dear father, David
Lippy, who died Jan. IA, 1902.
Sleep, ia ther, sleep, thy sutferings are over,
You have landed your barqIe on the bright
- golden shore;
No storms can ass il thee, no sorrow. no pain,
Sleep, father, sleep, We'll meet thee again.
We, too may soon follow, we cannot tell when,
In heaven will there be united again;
May we all i'll the way of our duty be led,
mourned dead.
BY HIS DAUGHTER EMMA L.
