HEATH OF STAFFORD.

P.O. Box 175

Santa Ana, Cal.

Dear Mrs Stanford,

I wish that I was
well enough to come to you
now in your quiet bereavement
and sing a little comfort
into your grieved life, but
the day that brings grief to one
brings joy to another.

So it goes that life and death
walk side by side on their dif-
ferent missions in the morning
of the same day.

Our dear Savior has led
your feet into the paths of
widowhood where only grow
flowers of memory, while in His
infinite wisdom He led our
dear baby Ruth into my life
to share in the mysteries of life.
