In Memoriam
In loving memory of Mr. James E. Preble, who died in Whitefield, on August 18, 1931.
He bade us not a last farewell
He said good bye to none
His loving heart has ceased to beat
His loving voice is still
His cheery smile and loving ways
Are pleasant to recall
He had a kind word for each one
And died beloved by all,
He is gone but not forgotten
His memory shall never fade
Loving thoughts shall always linger
Around the grave where he is laid.
HIS BEREAVED FAMILY
