IN MEMORIAM.

In fond and' loving memory of my dear farther, John Morris, wbo was killed at the Box Company's Mill, OHutu, on October Ist, 1917. Three years have passed away, dear dad, But your face will never fade; For I love you just as dearly Though you are in your silent grave. All is dark within our home — Lonely is the home to-day— For the one who smiled to cheer us Has forever passed away. Dear is the grave where my father is laid, Sweet is the memory that never will fade; Flowers may wither, and leaves Iturn and"cTie, Others forget you, but never will we. We cannot clasp your hand, father; We cannot see your smiling face. The fairest owers are first Ho fall, The sweetest first to fade. Inserted by his loving daughter and son-in-law Harriet and James Hinds, Utiku. • '-
