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 Mrs. Sarah M. Terhune, Died January 3, 1889 Aged 63 years
Safe in the arms of Jesus, safe on His gentle breast, there by His love o'ershaded, sweetly, my soul shall rest. Safe in the arms of Jesus, safe from corroding care, safe from world's temptations, Sin can not harm me there.
