"Beyond the sunset's crimson bars,
Beyond the twilight and the stars,
Beyond the midnight and the dark,
Sail on, sail on; O happy barque,
Into the dawn of that tomorrow,
Where hearts shall find the end of sorrow,
And love shall find it own."
M. E. H.

"In Loving Remembrance of Sister Minerva
One sweet flower has drooped and faded,
One dear sister's voice has fled;
One fair brow the grave has shaded,
Our dear sister now is dead,
But we'll feel no thought of sadness,
For our sister is happy now;
She has knelt in soul-felt gladness,
Where the happy angels bow.
She has gone to heaven before us,
But she turns and waves her hand,
Pointing to the glories o'er us
In that holy, happier land.
Lord, may angels watch above us,
Keep us from all error free,
May they guide and guard and love us,
Till like her we come to Thee."
Mrs. J. D. Feicht
