Bond, near Harrington, February 7, 1909. Thus over a happy home the shadow of a grave has fallen; and as another has said, It is wonderful how long a shadow a littlew grave can throw. This beautiful baby life was so sweet and precious so fraught with blessings to the parents that he seemed a flower from paradise, permitted to bloom for a brief season by their side, then recalled to its native skies, leaving the parents' earth road dark and lonely indeed. CARD OF THANKS To our many kind friends and neighbors we wish to return our heartfelt thanks for their help and sympathy in this our sudden bereavement. J.O. Bond, Millie Bond Cheyenne Star, Cheyenne, OK 18-Feb-1909 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
