RICE. In sad but loving remembrance of our beloved and only son and brother, ROBERT RICE, who departed this life two years ago today, August 19, 1918.
Dearest son, we have laid thee in the peaceful grave so low,
But again we hope to meet thee where no farewell tear is shed.
MAMMA AND PAPA.
More and more each day we miss you, dear brother;
Som may thing the wound is healed,
’Tis only God who knows the sorrow
That lies in our hearts concealed.
HIS LONELY SISTERS, EMMA TATE, LUCY BRODIS AND SUSIE RICE.
