In Memory of Eliza N. Moore.

Since our May meeting, we have had to pay
the last loving tribute to a most highly
esteemed & genial member of the Horticultural,
Eliza N. Moore.

While her life had not been devoted to the
horticultural development of the home, her
taste being literary, yet her love of Nature
and all its beauties was appreciated & her
interest in the collections at our meetings
was shown by her numerous contributions
to them, of vegetables, fruits, & flowers, as
long as she was able to meet with us.
We shall miss her presence & her genuine
hospitality, so freely offered when we met
at Norwood. Another of our members
has "crossed the river & entered that
Beautiful land."

"The Land by the [spider?] untrod,
Unpolluted by sorrow or care;
It is lighted alone by the presence of God,
Whose throne & whose temple are there;
It's crystaline streams, with a murmurous flow,
Meander through valleys of green,
And its mountains of jasper are bright
in the glow
Of a splendor no moral hath seen". [Jane?] 7-'21.
