D. CRAWFORD.

Who departed this life January
80, 1921:
1t is six months, dear mother,
Since we laid you to rest,
And placed your cold hands upon
your breast
In silence you suffered,
With patience you bore,
TIL God called you home
To suffer no more
You left us, dear mother,
To see God face to face,
But In our home, dear mother,
No one can take your place.
You will never be forgotten, mother,
2 Never from our memory fade,
Loving hearts will always linger
Around the grave where you,were
laid.
