power hayfork unloading hay, when the rope holding the large heavy pulley broke
letting thepulley down upon his head fracturing his skull. He was rushed to the

Mr GRIFFITHS did not preach a funeral sermon, composing and
reading the following poem instead:
Farewell, Delos! we'll never know
This side of the "Great Divide,"
The meaning of that pulley-blow,
The tragic death you died;
But we, your neighbors and your friends
Will never quite forget
How folks, with sympathetic ends
About your casket met.
The countryside iscast in gloom
Both old and young are sa,
That you, so soon, should meet your doom,
A bright, industrious lad.
Your mother and your dad are grieved,
God give them needful grace,
And may the children, sore bereaved,
Behold God's loving face.
The gracious folks in whose employ
You labored to the end,
Are crushed with sorrow o'er the boy
Their hearts would fain defend.
God bless your passing- youthful Mudge,
Reveal the gain in loss,
And we will trust the Righteous Judge
To make all plain, Delos.
