Kellogg. Born Nov. 18, 1837, died October 17, 1940. Now softly dear father, we did thee farewell, Then softly we laid thee to rest in the vale; In meekness we bow to the Heavenly call, Across the dark river there is room for all. Long years of affliction and trials are passed, At home with the sanctified millions at last, Away on the shores of the beautiful land, Near the pearly gates at the Savior’s right hand. Those locks had grown gray with the burden of years, Those eyes had grown dim by affliction and tears, But storms and afflictions can never cross o’er. To darken the lights on that beautiful shore. That father, dear father, we will see no more. Till we join with saints on that sunny bright shore; The family circle is broken at last, We miss him at home and remember the past. In that bright beauty land, Where death cannot come, Our kindred are tenderly resting at home. Let us plant on the graves of our parents dear, A marble, a rose, and then drop a tear. -- Contributed.
