IN MEMORIAM

JACOBI MACMENAMIN, SACERDOTII ORNAMENT!, PATRIAE GLORIAE.

Somewhere in France, A little wooden cross will mark your tomb, And men who loved you in those awful years Will pray beside it with eyes wet with tears.

Somewhere in France, 17 hen night has veiled the bloody fields in gloom , And wondering stars are shining in the sky, ** They’ll speak of you and tell how heroes die.

Somewhere in France, II here the wild geese found many a lonely grave. The land they loved has caught you to her breast And given you with them unending rest.

Somewhere in France, Our Inland soldiers whom you died to save II hen the swift summons called you to your crown II ifh loviny hands have laid your body down. Somewhere in France. J. K.
