Harvesting his precious grain.

And from us a precious one took.

Since tho husband this life departed
A:il loft this poor mother broken htarlcd
To her the cross ia heavy to bear;
May she cant on tho Saviour hor every

Besides this mother bereft
A husband and two little boys are loft ;
Also.tw) brothers and a sister dear
Remain on this iiuinil are sphere,
Death, 'tho not unexpected, is a severe
blow ,
But when the Saviour calls we have to

We all have to calmly await
And meekly submit to our fate.
We all have dear ones gone before
Who are waiting for us on the shore '
Of the land where there is no night
But all is beautiful, fair and bright. '
