THE MAXWELL TRIBUNE, Maxwell, Iowa, Thursday, February 1, 1894, page 4, column 4. "DIED. - On Jan. 19th, 1894, Silva, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Morgan, of Pleasant Valley, aged 11 months and 12 days. The bereaved family have the sympathy of their neighbors and friends. "Ther's another bud removed, Ere it felt the blight of sin; Thro' the door the angels made Darling baby has passed in. Far beyond the azure skies Where the tiny star eyes peep, >From all earth's sad doubts and fears, Little baby's gone to sleep. Angels bore her safely home, So for her we may not weep. Softly to the door-way come, Little baby's gone to sleep. She will wake in fairer lands, Where the angel voices sing, There the floweret shall expand, There shall love perfection bring. She has reached the golden shore, Thro' the river cold and deep, Angels bore her safely there. Little baby's gone to sleep."
