In Memoriam.
. . —.—« _ W. H. LEVIN. In this New Age of this Old World »f ours, When barefaced blaster often heads the van, And weeds, at times, outgvow the finest flowers, It cheers one's heart to meet a gentleman. What constitutes a gentleman ? Not gold ; But kindness, goodness, courtesy, and love; A spirit fashion'd in the Master's mould, Brave as a lion, gentle as a dove. And such was-he who lately passed the gate That Godward leads to everlasting rest; But though- he's gone, his memory will wait Eoibalriiett for ever in his country's bre^l.; : . [ w ■ Thos. Bbackrn.
