Lines written in memory of Mar
Flynn who died May is, at her hon
near Nelson, aged 20 years.
How to cling to each, our loved ones,
In the world of earthly care.
Little know we of the blessings.
In that heavenly home so fair.
We are the flowers on Gods footstool,
Each one planted here to care
For the weak and withered blossoms
To home SO bright and fair.
To deck the home of our Creator;
One by one the blossoms go.
Sorrow ought we? Sister, brother
Soon it's time for us to go.
When we see the flower dropping,
How our hearts with sorrow swells.
Oh how sad, to think of losing
The darling flower we loved SO we'll.
She has decked our pathway dearly,
Twenty years gone past and by;
She will shine in Gods mansion.
In her home beyond the sky.
On a bright and sunny morning,
All Our flower has wilted so.
How we watched and waited,
For we knew that she must go.
Death came and took her so gently
That she seemed to know what it meant.
For Oh so sweetly resting
With the angel darling went.
Four long months she fought the monster
Each day he slipped her life away,
Till an angel darling sought her
Now she's gone with Him to stay.
God is just. Our blessed Savior
Though we do not understand,
Why one SO young and beautiful
Should go and join the heavenly band.
How we think we see the faces,
In that bright angelic land,
Singing praises, for the kingdom
And his loved throughout the land.
Father, brothers and sisters
Closer to the cross do cling.
Mother has gone before
And with Mary she doth sing.
On the Resurrection morning
You to gather all shall meet
And sing Gods endless praises,
On that bright and golden street.

He was one of the first settlers in
eastern Sharon township and helped
to change it from the wild, rough
prairie it was, to it's now fertile and
productive soil. Later he moved near
town and finally to Audubon. But
his restless activity drove him back to
the farm again. Finally as age and
sickness came upon him, he again
moved to town where he died.
The funeral service was conducted
at the Methodist church by Rev. Vol.

Post and the Relief Corps, and he was

ropes OF paper, OF red white and blue.
The pillows and srchways are also hung
with fluffy festoons OF IL. the whole effect
being OF extreme beauty.
In addition each arch Is surmounted
with a shield Of the United States sups
