IN MEMORIAM.

In remembrance of our dear hus-
band and father, Sigbjorn w. Bake.
who passed away September 3, 1920,
% years old.
Like the petals of a rose that falls
away
Was the life OF our dear husband and
father. -
Just fading day by day.
And at last while in tears we stood
by.
His spirit passed away:
But some day we hope to meet him
On the beautiful Isle OF Somewhere.
