VICE iss i In Memory of Lula Haney. I never hear the lovely sound Of sweet birds singing near the mound, In the silent grave unfold. Where two gentle hands lie cold, That I do not sigh and weep O'er the thought that she must sleep Forever in that chilly bed In the lone chamber of the dead. And I never see the light Of the silvery stars at night, Shedding over the hills a gleam, Making things look like a dream; That I do not see her fair face And form of wiini"' - F< Rising shining in the light That glows around her grave so bright. And I never feel the breeze That waves the blooms on trees By that lone and dreary hill. Where her sacred hands lie still. That I do not feel the breath From her lips of crimson hue, Hushed by the ruthless hands of death, Now pale beneath the midnight dew. O, Lula, thy gentle voice is hushed, Thy warm, true heart is .still, And on thy pale and peaceful face Is resting death's cold chill. Thy hands are clasped upon thy breast, We have kissed thy noble brow; And in our aching hearts We havA up .l^ula now. Ti8 hard to break the tender cord, When love has bound the heart; 'Tis hard to speak the word: "We must forever part." Dearest Lula, we have laid thee In thy peaceful grave's embrace, But thy memory will be cherished, Till we see thy lovely face. t Our precious Lula from us has pone; A voice we loved is still; A* place is vacant in our home, Which never can be filled. W.e cannot tell who next may fall Beneath the chastening rod; One must be first, Oh, may we all prepare to meet our God. Mother. A MARRIAGE. Miss Mary W. Carter, of this county, and Mr. R. B.
