of his daughter Mrs. Willie
Wick at Guadalupe Victoria
County.
The golden gates were open
wide,
A Gentle voice said "come”
And Angels from the other
side,
Welcomed our loved one
home.
We long to cross the river,
Long to rest upon that shore
There to see and know and
love,
With the Savior may he
rest forevermore.
When you see a precious
blossom.
That we tendered with such
care,
Rudely taken from our
bosom,
How our aching hearts
despair .
Round thy silent grave we
linger ,
Till the setting sun is low,
Feeling all our hopes have
perished.
With the flowers we cherish
ed so.
You may sleep but not,
forever,
In your lone and silent grave
Blessed be the Lord that
taketh,
Blessed be the Lord that
gave.
In the bright, enternal city,
Death can never never come
In his good time he’ll call us
From our rest to Home Sweet

be with them for a few weeks.
Mrs. Strunk owns a fine resi-
dence in Nordheim and she
and Mrs. Ledbetter tried hard
to feel at home in it but never
succeeded fully. To break
away from the memories and
associations of ones best years
is no small job. Nordheim rea-
lizes that, and loses the good
!adies with regret but without
questioning their decision.—

pense of fruitage. Fruit iiq-
