In Memoriam.
In loving memory of my clear husband, Arthur John Ruston, who lost his life in the Huntly Mining Disaster on September 12th, 1914. The mid-night stars are beaming Upon a silent grave, Where sleeping without dreaming Is one I could not save, In dreams I see his loving face And kiss his loving brow, And whisper, as I loved him then I love his memory now. Ever remembered by his loving wife and daughter. In loving memory of my dearly beloved husband, William Kelly, who lost his life in the Huntly Disaster. September 12th, 1914. Though death divides, fond memory clings. Ever remembered by his wife and children. WHORSKY. —ln fond and loving memory of my dear husband, John Whorsky, who lost his life in the Huntly Mining Disaster. September 12, 1914. What peaceful hours we once enjoyed, How sweet his memory still: But death has left an aching void, The world can never fill. If upright worth and virtue claim a tear, ’Tis due to him, a loving father dear, Grateful, affectionate, sincere, and kind, His memory’s dear to those he’s left behind. Although your hand I cannot clasp, Your face I cannot see, This little token it will show I still remember thee. —lnserted by his loving wife and children. WHORSKY.—-In loving memory of our clear son-in-law, John Whorsky, who lost his life in the Mining Disaster, September 12th, 1614. Had we but seen him at the last, And watched his dying bed. Or heard the last sigh of his breast, Or held the drooping head. Our hearts, we think would not have felt The bitterness and grief. But God has ordered otherwise And now he rests in peace. Ever remembered by D. and M Wear.
