In loving memory of Martha
Boyd, who passed away four
years ago December IL, 1916.
You could not say goodbye to us
You could not clasp our hand
But God has taken the one we
loved
Off to his realms so grand
What would we give to clasp
her hand,
Her happy face to see
To hear her voice and see her
smile
That meant 80 much to us
We loved you so much
But God loved you best
Love and remembrance last
forever.

turned the award down with the explanation that Freedoms

the issue raised by Wall real 1t would be sorry day for

that there is something sinister in and something
