he met them with a smile, saying,
"God bless, you, my children. -
His last hours were comforted by the
rites of the Catholic Church of which
he was faithful member, and his
death was peaceful and happy.

AT Rest, from all care and toll set free,
The bodv's pain no more to trouble thee;
And while we mourn thy loss we know
That God is Love and He would have it So
Thy cheering presence gone to World Unk'n.,
Makes very dark the way and we bemoan:
And question why it must be so,
Why we must stay and thy dear spirit go.
Gods Glory she loved in the flowers of earth,
Envelopes her now in the Heavenly Birth:
To meet her, to greet her will rob Dark Death
OF halfit's sting when we yield our breath.
Not until.each loom is silent
And the shuttles cease to fly,
VIII God unroll the pattern- -,
And ex plain the reason why:
For the dark threads were as needful
In the Viewers Skillful Hand
AS the threads of gold and silver
For the pattern which He planned.
