IN MEMORIAM.
PHILLIPS.—To the sacred memory of my dear mother, who passed away on August 11, 1923., We can never know a mother’s worth, Or the love she gladly gave, Until beneath the lonely earth She is laid within the grave. And then, too late, we realise There can never be another, In grief and strife, and all through life Your best friend is your mother. Father, in Thy gracious keeping Leave we now our loved one sleeping. (Sadly missed by het loving daughter, Nellie!) PHILLIPS; —In lovjng memory of my dear mother, who left us on August 11, 1923. A mother ’s memory is more than gold A mother’s love ean nov'er be told. Dearest mother rest, your work is done, The greatest work beneath the sun. She lives in the heart of one who loved her, Sweetly she sleeps and on dream wings flies To be with God in Paradise. (Ever remembered by her loving daughter, Fanny.)
