Only a moment of dark,
A dream of the fleeting night,
And then the beautiful break of day,
And the quiet peace of night;
And you found yourself where you longed to stand,
In the quiet repose of the Fatherland.
Services were held from the home of her daughter, Mrs. Thos. Chamberlain Wednesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. D. G. Glair. Interment in Greenmound Cemetery.
