| Text | Again was death an unwelcome and sudden visitor, taking a good man and citizen, a loving husband and an affectionate father to that country from whose borue no traveler returns. Again are we assured that life is uncertain and death is sure carrying with it pangs of sorrow and grief at the separation.
