 Together as man and wife, With pe'er divorce between them,
 In which our country is rife. And so cur congratulations
 From Somervjlle, Mass, we send, With d heap of loving wishes,
 From your helpless, shut-in friend. May our Father gently guide you,
 All the way down the stream o1

 And abundant blessings give you,
 From Himself, the one True Vine: For without Him we are nothing,
 And our own plans ever fail, May you seek His Kingdom only,
 And with Him you will prevail. So I'll send my benediction 'To you from His loving Word You will find it in Numbers G. To all my heart doth accord. -[ Lizzie s. Turney.
