The mother, Mrs. Bish, and all the family are very grateful for the kind words and helpful deeds extended to them in this time of affliction.

God wanted a heart so tend,
As to feel the breath of life;
He wanted a hand most gentle
To sooth (sic) in the time of strife.
He wanted an eye to sparkle
When other eyes were cold,
And lips to wear a smile of love
Above a pain untold.
God wanted a faith so constant
That time could work no change
He wanted a way so winning
That manly powers should range
Themselves about that being
And give the homage due,
As so God made a mother,
And gave her to me and you.
