IN MEMORIAM.
Keating. —ln loving memory ot my dear Johnnie, who died at Arrowtowu, April Bth, 1895 ; aged 17. Day by day we saw him fade and gently piss away, But often in our hearts we prayed that he might longer stay, But God is gaod, and the gift he gave la held a while in that silent grave, Not lost but hidden—l may not weep While he is alone in the silent deep ; For the voice of an angel speaks to me Of a fair new home for my darling and me. —lnserted by his loving mother, Lizzie Keating.
