IN MEMORIAM 

  In loving memory of our brother, Wallace Bryant, who left us one year ago, 
January 11, 1947. 

Called in the bloom of manhood 
  Just in the prime of life; 
Away from this world of sorrow 
  To a land so fair and bright. 

Gone from this earth so swiftly, 
  Just like a flower in bloom; 
So kind, so fair, so loving, 
  Yet called away so soon. 

It cost us bitter grief 
  To see him pine away; 
We could not give relief 
  Nor yet the end delay. 
               Sisters and brother.
