The memorial card

From the funeral card

There is no Death! what seems so is transition;

This life of mortal breath

Is but a suburb of the life elysian,

Whose portal we call Death.

In Loving Remembrance of

Mary J. Hathaway,

Died June 11, 1890.

Aged 30 years

A precious one from us has gone,

A voice we loved is stilled;

A place is vacant in our home,

Which never can be filled.

God in His wisdom has recalled,

The boon His love had given;

And though the body moulders here,

The soul is safe in Heaven.
