MRS. MART McATEER.
How well do we remember
The days In which we roamed
When we were little children
Around our mother's home,. ?
When ehe In joy would greet them
With smiles In pleasant form
And to her heart would press them
While holding In her arms.
>.
It was then we knew no sorrow
That lasted o'er a day.
For smiles of precious mother
Would wipe them all away;
For we were then unconscious
Of what we had to meet.
When we would t>e no longer
Around our mother's feet.
But days and years kept passing
Until that awful day
When mother heard the summons
That called her far away.
'Twus May the second.
The year, of nineteen,
That brought the saddest hour
inai we naa ever seen.
**
But we could not resist it.
Fort it was God's call of lcve,
That took her from our presence
Into the home above.
And now she's done with sorrow
With aches and pains and grief,
For in that parting hour
She found a sweet relief.
But, oh, our precious mother.
We miss her here below,.
Though she was old and feeble.
Her steps were very slow. J
How we miss her gentle footsteps.
Miss each kind and gentle word,
No more in the lonely household
