In Memory of Little Louise Floyd

On October 25, 1915, as the sun was sinking deep into the crystal sea, the 
death angel crept into our home and claimed as His own our darling baby, little 
Ruby Louise.
It was so hard to give her up, but we will say as Daniel did "The Lord giveth 
and the Lord taketh away, Blessed be the name of the Lord." 
Her little mission here on earth was very short. She was with us only three 
short months. While she was with us we were so happy. It was such a pleasure to 
love and care for our baby. Little did we know how soon, to Jesus, she would 
go. But Jesus said, "Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them 
not, for such is the kingdom of heaven."

No lonely hours did I know for to my baby I could go. I tried to be a mother 
true, and do all for my baby that I knew. With tears, I fold away her little 
clothes--the sorrow it gives me nobody knows. Her little buggy too is put away, 
for in it she had slumbered day by day. But Jesus said to her, "Come home, for 
in this evil world you are too sweet to roam." The little eyes time is no more 
can your memory in death's embrace, and never until time is no more can you 
memory be erased. Oh! the pleasure it gives us to know that some day to our 
baby we can go.
The golden gate swung open, a gentle voice said, "Come," the angels on the 
other side, beckoned our loved one home.
Mr. and Mrs. R.R. Floyd.
