In Memoriam.
Aloving tribute to the memory of
my dear sister, Mrs Lillian D McCrea,
who died July 10, 1916.
One sad, sad, long year today. ~
Oh, how we miss her!
Friends may think the wound is healed
But they little know the sorrow
Deep within my heart concealed.
How I miss you, dearest Lillian;
| Never will your memory fade;
Tho' other loved ones are around me, \
.My heart mourns for you still,
i Another hand is beckoning us;
Another call is given,
And glows once more with angel steps
! The path that leads to heaven.
! Our young and gentle sister
i Whose smile brightened summer
hours,
Amid the dews of springtime
I Has left us like the flowers,

Went down as sinks beneath the hill
The glory of a setting star,
Clear, suddenly and still,
Fold her in Thine arms, dear Father, .?
And let her henceforth be
A messenger of love between
Our human hearts and Thee.
?Her devoted sister,
Egeria Tisdale.
