The monster Death invad’d our home, And hushed the voice of Daughter Jones With shadows of the closing day— She smiled and left this house of clay. So many hearts made glad with joy, Sunshine and kindness made her alloy. None knew her but to love her well, The story that her life will tell. She loved the things of nature fair, j Beauties of all and silent pray'r. “God Will Take Care of You”, she’d slng In heaven let the joy bells ring. Her church was Inmost in her heart, Loyal and faithful she did her part. Not cry of help came to her door, But what she do much more and more. The many friends she counts by score Will meet her on the other shore, And shout and sing the songs of praise On that great judgment day. While in her narrow bed she lay, Awaiting for the final day, Her deeds will sprout as seeds of grain, # Warmed by her smile, sunshine and name. The golden harvest now is ripe, A well spent life, an honored wife. Her work is done, the race Is won And angels beckon her to come. She greeted Death with one sweet smile, Her eyes on Jesus all the while, Step by step she crossed the tide To sweet deliverence there abide. By P. R. PERKINS, 2237 Seward St, Omaha, Neb. Ckril of Thanks. We wish to thank our many friends, neighbors and all secret organizations for their kindness and floral offerings during the death and funeral of our beloved wife, sister and aunt.
