Oh, my darling boy is dead!
The funeral will take place on Friday at 3 o'clock from the residence of his parents on 7th street west between G and H south.
How oft he made my bosom glad-- No more to hear his little voice No more I'll see his little face. His little chair is vacant now There's none to fill his place He was my darling blue eyed boy He was my darling pride. I loved him oh perhaps too much For soon he slept and died Farwell now my heart's fond treasure Farewell til this life is o'er. When hand in hand we'll have the pleasure Of rambling on the shining shore.
His mother. | ||||
