IN MEMORIAM.
GREY. —In loving memory of our darling Alfie, dearly-beloved son of A. P. and R. Grey, who passed away at Clarendon on January 19, 1914; aged six years and 10 months. A bud the Gardener gave us, A pure and lovely child; He gave him to our keeping, To cherish undefiled. And just as ho was waking To tho troubles of tho day, Down came the Heavenly Gardener And took our bud away. God needed one more angel child Amidst His shining band, And 60 He bent with loving 6mile, And clasped our darling's hand. —Inserted by his loving father and mother. Oh, Alfie dear, wo miss you here, From the home you loved so well; But death cannot sever tho bond of our love, Nor steal the fond hope we shall meet you above. —Inserted by Nellie and Percy. » PUDDY.—In loving memory of oitr dearly-loved father, who passed away at 27 Park terrace, Kensington, on January 19, 1912. We mourn for you, dear father, But not with outward show, For those who mourn sincerely Mourn silently and low'. When days are dark and friends are few, Oh, father dear, we long for you. —Inserted by his loving wife and family. Friends may think we have forgotten you, When at_ times they see us smile; But they little know tho aching hearts That smile hides all the while. —Inserted by his loving daughters, Aunip and Ella,
