IN LOVING REMEMBRANCE
OF
HOLY BIBLE
Margaret S. Cosgrove,
Died July 26, 1891.
Aged 24 yrs. 6 mo's. 16 days
'Tis hard to break the tender cord,
When love has bound the heart,
'Tis hard, so hard to speak the words,
Must we forever part?
Dearest loved one, we have laid thee,
In the peaceful grave's embrace,
But thy memory will be cherished,
Till we see thy heavenly face.
