To rest meath the daisies and dust

Tive had my portion Of love and light
Under the Heavens-dark or bright,
And fear not the sleep
In the silence deep;
Good-by to the Winter--the blossoms

To the great green world and the

''There'll he daisies to bloom at the

Hiding the heart in it's blissful re-

And fear not the sleep
Where the dark shadows creep;
Farewell to the song, and farewell to
the sigll!"
And when Ger us all the dark shadow
shall fall,
May we thankfully still all life's sweet
ness recall,
And go to the rest
That is sweetest and best;
With no doubt-With no dread
Let the last word be said
The last word, "Good-by, and Gods
blessing to ALL"

paymaster's scuttled ship Ensign, which was
sunk with her crew of ninety souls in Chip
peWa bay, in the st. Lawrence, near Brook
vile. during the war of 1912, has probably
been located by fishermen near Dark Island,
the summer home of Commodore +. G..
Bourne of New York. The discovery, if
true, means great wealth for the lucky
finders
odd pieces of ships rigging and rope ends
Characteristic of 100 years ago and the
cover of a sea chest with the word Ensign
laid in pearl have come to light where the
treasure ship is supposed to lie.
The discovery was made lately while two
fishermen We're out TRAVELLING. A heavy
deep sea lead was taken along, and between
hauIs the lead was sunk by the men to
satisfy their curiosity as to the depth of
water. The chest cover brought to the
surface trailing two pieces of rope end and
broken bar.
4 close inspection revealed the nature of
the junk and the fishermen angled around
for four hours without anything further
coming up. y later venture proved that the
sunlen ship was lying in 100 fathoms Of
water.
