dear husband and father, James Baird
who departed this life Just one year ago
today:
Just one year has passed 2nd gone,
Since you left us, father dear,
We have been so sad and lonely,

But we know that you are happy.
For you were so good and true,
And yOu are at home with Jesus,
IN that land beyond the skies.

No eyes can see me weep,
But many a silent tear ! shed,
When others are asleep.
God called him home. Il was His VIII,
But In my heart 1 love him still;
His memory is as dear today,
As In the hour he passed away.
Sadly missed by His Wife,
