THREE NOTABLE WOMEN 301 



"death lies on her like an untimely frost upon 

 the sweetest flower of all the field." Yet even 

 for her "I see some sparks of better hope 

 which elder years may happily bring forth." 

 To her I would say: 



"There will come a glory in jour eyes, 

 There will come a place within your heart, 

 Sitting 'neath the quiet evening skies, 

 Time will dry the tear and dull the smart. 

 You will know that you have played your part ! 

 Yours shall be the love that never dies ! 

 You, with Heaven's peace within your heart. 



Gentle reader, think of this brave woman 

 and her trials and her successes, and you may 

 find in her history something that will by the 

 force of example help you to be brave, cheer- 

 ful, energetic, kind, and considerate of others 

 as she always has been.
