Such a life of unselfish service as
hers was is achieved by but few. Her
generosity, < her hospitality were
kfiown far and wide by all who came
in touch with her. Even for many
years past the time alloted to the.
life of rpan, rbe filled her days with
useful labor for others, keeping in
touch with the interests, of those
around her in a most remarkable de
gree.- When age and steadily increas
ing feebleness rendered the service
of her hands no longer possible, with
what sorrow the loved duties were
laid down none could know save those
who were with her to the end. May
it be granted unto her descendants
to worthily follow the example she
has set before them.
“Dear dead! they have become
Lik&-guardian angels'to us;
And distant heaven like home,
Through them begins to woo us;
Love that was earthly jvings :
to holier- pUwcgy " -
The dead are sacred things
That multiply our graces.
They whom we loved on earth
Attract us now to heaven;
Who shared our grief and mirth «
Back fo us now' are give®. -
They move with noiseless foot
Gravely and sweetly round us,
And their soft touch hath cut
Full many a chaip that bound us."
