In Memoriam Orr, who died April 10to, 1917. We love. her - yes we loved her, But Jesus loved her more; And He has sweetly called her home To yonder shining shore. The golden gates are open, A gentle voice says, "Come," And with farewells unspoken, She calmly entered home. God knows how much we miss her; He counts the tears that we shed, And whispers, "Hush! She is only sleeping, Your loved one is not dead." Father, Mother apd Son. Damaging Boathouses The ice is busy breaking up, boat houses this Spring.
