Died

Floyd, the infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Buchan, died at their home south of town, Sunday morning, July 9th, of a complication of diseases, aged five weeks and six days.

A bud the Gardener gave us
A pure and lovely child
He gave into our keeping
To cherish undefiled
But just as it was opening
To the glory of the day
Down came the Heavenly Gardener
And took the child away

Card of Thanks
We wish to thank our friends and neighbors for their kind assistance during the illness and burial of our little babe and for the beautiful floral offerings.
Wm. Buchan and Family
