         Dearest Sister, thou are gone.
         And thy loss we deeply mourn;
         But 'twas thy Savious that hath called thee,
         From the realms of earth and time,
         Up to that sweet and heavenly clime.

         Our dearest sister was to us,
         As violets fair, as Zephyr's free,
         Innocent and full of love,
         As the meek lamb and gentle dove;
         But her pure spirit has gone above.

         We regret thou hast found an early tomb;
         But thy Savior's [sic] power can keep thee,
         Through the darkness of its gloom:
         Farewell, Sister, we will meet thee,
         When we cross the narrow stream.   -R.A.C.

         But now she's gone to that eternal rest
         Where she will meet with those who are ever blest,
         And waits to meet us where we'll never die,
         And join in praises sweet, to Him on high.
