the most Of his life He was en-
gagged in farming as life work
until his retirement In 1879 he

days after a lingering illness.
You are not dead-life has
but set you free,
Your years of life were like
a lovely song,
The last sweet poignant notes
Of which, held long,
Passed into silence while we
listened still expectantly.
And we about you whom
you moved among
Would feel that grief for you
were surely wrong
You have passed beyond where
we can see
For us who knew you, dread
of age is past,
You took life, tiptoe, to the
very last;
1t never lost for you its lovely
look;
You kept your interest in its
thrilling book:
To you death came as no
conqueror in the end
You merely smiled to greet
another friend.
