DIED.

We loved our mother. She is sleeping --
Earthly cares are hers no more;
Safe within the angels keeping
With our father, gone before.
Fare thee well, our dearest mother;
Now in death their rest is sweet;
Yet they live above in glory,
Where their joy is all complete.
Yes, they dwell amid the angels --
Crowns and harps of gold they bear --
Heaven's bliss is theirs forever,
Will their children meet them there?
D. M. McC.
