IN MEMORIAM.
JOOX— I" memory of Sarah Boon, who died September 9th, ltW. Mother, it swms but yesterday. So swiftly time has flown, Since your dear hand wa» clasped in ours, Your lip* prejwsed to our own. E'sn now we think we hear your voice. So potent is tho spell— The voice, alas! for ever hushed, Itl greeting or farewell. Awl now at last you rent with him, Who* 1 ever-beckniwg hand Invited t'iroiigh long widowed years * To that briffht and better land. W* follow soon. Oh! solace sweat. For all our tvarn and pain, That wo tofjethi-r al! shall moot Clasp'd in those arms again. —Inserted hy licr loving children, Rosa, Emmie, and; Will.
