IN MEMORIAM

In loving remembrance of my dear
husband, Henry c. Dow, who departed
this life July 81, 1910.
One lonely year has passed.
Since | have seen his face,
think of him just as when
He sat in his familiar place.
| miss him from my home, dear hus-
band,
| miss him everywhere,
A shadow DER my life has cast,
| miss the sunshine of thy face.
Gone from earth, yes gone forever,
Tear dimmed eyes shall look IN vain,
| shall see him face to face, oh never,
Never more on earth again.
Home is sad, Oh God, how dreary,
Lonesome, lonesome every spot,
Listening for his voice, still weary,
Weary for hear it not.
Dear husband, you will never. be for
gotten,
Never shall your memory fade,
Sweetest thoughts shall ever linger,
Around the grave where you, are laid.
May God who claimed my treasure
Lead me gently all the way,
Granting grace without measure,
Helping me to meet him again.
By His Loving Wife.
