In Loving Memory of Miss Mary M., Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Goudie, Born in Burnside Township, Lapeer County, Michigan, August 18, 1884. Died in Burnside Township, February 25, 1904, Aged 19 Years, 5 Months and 8 Days. Mary, dear, you went and left us Little thinking death so nigh; But, alas, before returning, The message came that you must die. Could you been home with us, dear Mary, Where we for you could kindly care; But, oh! this privilege was not granted and oh! the grief we scarce can bear. We had thought to have you with us, To comfort our declining years; But our hopes were quickly blasted, And our eyes are blind with tears. And we miss you, sadly miss you, Oh, how sad to say good-bye! Yet, again we hope to meet you, Where there are no tears to dry. Then, farewell to you, kind parents, Brothers dear, a kind adieu; I am resting now with Jesus, - Waiting there to welcome you.
