      _____________

      Until the day break. Died In Wellesley, on Sunday, June 20th, 1926 Annie Schrag Beloved Wife of George E. Bast Aged 66 years and 3 months The Funeral Will leave her late residence, Wellesley, on Wednesday, June 23rd, at 9.30 o'clock a.m., and proceed to the Third Line cemetery for interment. Services in the church after interment. Friends and acquaintances will please accept this intimation. The bosom where oft I have lain, And slept my infant hours away, Will never beat for me again, "Tis still in death! 'tis senseless clay. How many were the silent prayers My mother offered up for me, How many were the bitter cares She felt when none but God could see. Well, she is gone, and now in heaven, She sings his praise, who died for her, And in her hand a harp is given, And she's a heavenly worshiper. Oft let me think of what she said, And of the kind advice she gave; O let me do it, as she's dead, And sleeping in her lowly grave. And let me choose the path she chose, And her I soon again may see, Beyond this world of sin and woes With Jesus in Eternity.
