Nellie Fish
THE COUNTY.
MORGAN PRAIRIE.
DIED. -- March 24th, little Nellie, daughter of H. and L. Fish, aged about 1 year and six months.
Fold the hands lightly,
O'er the calm breast;
Close the eyes tenderly,
Lay her to rest.
Place the turf lightly,
O'er her low bed;
Where tear-drops of kindred,
In sorrow are shed.
Lay the turf lightly,
O'er the spot where she's laid;
And chaplets of flowers
Twine over her bed.
To such little children,
Christ's blessing was given;
Then think of dear Nellie,
As a jewel in Heaven.
