IN MEMORIAM
CREAN.— In loving memory of Michael Crean, beloved husband of Mary Crean, who died at Wrey's Bush, January 10, 1905.— R.1. P. The last Mass was over, The last prayers were saidOffered up to the throne For the repose of the dead. Rest and peace were long in coming To the tired spirit here, But trials were rich blessings, Since they brought the Saviour near. Lose not faith, then, if you labor, Tired, weary, full of woe : Heaven is a better prize Than all pleasures here below. God is merciful and kindHe knows whale' er is best ; And those who suffer here on earth, In Heaven find perfect rest. Oh ! grieve not, grieve not for him now, But, do your prayers increase ; And pray from your inmost heart, That he may rest in peace. • —Inserted by his loving wife and daughter.
