In Loving Memory If My Dear
Husband BERTHE HARRISON who
departed this life one year ago
today, June is. 1851.
Dear BERTHE how I miss you no
tongue can tell.
Gone is the face we loved so dear
Silent the voice we loved to hear
IT'S sad but true, we wonder why,
the best are always the first to
die.
They say time heals an aching,
heart,
But no that isn't true,
For one whole year has passed
And my heart still aches for you.
Softly the stars are sinking
Upon a precious grave.
Beneath is the one I dearly loved,
But whom I could net save.
Friends may think 1 have forgot
ten,
When at times they see me smile
Little 10 they know the heartache
That my smiles hide all the while
I morn for him in silence,
No one sees me weep,
But many tears are shed,
When others are asleep.
Thoughts return to scenes now
past,
AS time goes on but memories
last.
And while he rests N peaceful
sleep
His loving memory I shall keep
Only God knows how much I miss
him,
Although he is far from pain,
This would seem like heaven
If I only had him back again.
Your devoted wife

lounged in holiday idleness on the terrace of
his sister Fredas Connecticut home, watching
small scarlet plane buzz through the cloud

hind him, in the living room, he heard Freda's
voice as she picked up the ringing phone.
''Oh, hello, Mrs. Weiderbacker. A bur-
lesque queen? how perfectly terrible for
you no, don't blame you at all. And on
the day of the rose show, too! -"
Trant knew that the local garden club rose
show was taking place at Mrs. Weiderbacker'
that afternoon. He knew, too that Mrs
Weiderbacker was going to read Fredas

who had just been reelected president, had
been urged by her doctor to stay at home and
nurse a summer cold. But how the rich and

How sweet of her."
Daisy Groves, Trant knew, was Freda's
dearest friend, the wife of Gordon Groves,
Mrs. Weiderbackers long suffering nephew
who lived with her and managed her estate.
Freda appeared on the terrace and snatched
up the carbon of her speech from the flag
stones where Trant had dropped it. Imagine!
My speech never got to Mrs. Weiderbacker
Thank heavens, Daisy knows shorthand She
can take it down over the phone and type it

She was back on the phone. Hello, Daisy

lRANT listened idly with pleasant fantasies

Trant asked: ''You didn't see anyone or
