N. McINDOO'S■ aN MEMORIA14I. Lines composed by Miss E. Lennox, Tarnberry, as a tribute of respect to the memory of Miss Maggie Gallaher, who died May 22nd, 1895. Maggie has gone. removed by death, We'll see her here no more; She haas withdrawn, with rapid High From this deceitful shore. Yes, she has gone, the fact we know, And left her friends behind, Removed to brighter worlds above Where saints in glory shine. Silent that tongue and pale that face, • �i'hi�zh. Fo kiodit was before Now dim those eyes and cold those hands, Her pulse it beats no more. Consigned to the silent grave, i a . To creeping worms a prey ; C Now the dear form of Maggie is laid, t To moulder in the clay. But mother, friends, do not repine Her very sudden doom; From earthly cares, to heavenly joys, Your God has called her home. Oh, mourn not that your darling child, a Has sorely reached the shore, ; t Where sickness, pain, and toil and death, f Disturb her rest no more. a Though now in grief you now resign e Her body to the dust, Immortal it shall yet arise, With all the sleeping jest. While you are toiling here below, And sin oft proves a load; Her soul, to full perfection raised, Is present with the Lord. `Then meekly kiss the chastening rod, With calm submission bow; 'Tia sent you now for mutual good, Though heavy be the blow. The Lord gave and He took away, Then blessed be His name ; Till life shall fail we'll sing His praise, And glory in the same. HAIIRIS"ION`. Mr. W. R.
