U. D. C. MEMORIAL TO MRS. LULA
PRESTON THOMPSON AND MRS.
CORNELIA WATSON BELL
The angel of silence has folded his
silken wings in our Chapter; lips
j have been sealed by his still fingers,
j whose words we can ill afford to
miss.
i The Jefferson Chapter, U. D. C. t
| has been called to mourn the loss of
• two beloved members, Mrs. Luis
| Preston Thompson, who passed away
j Sept. 17th at East Point; and Mrs.
i Cornelia Watson Bell, who passed
away Oct. 9th at Jefferson.
In the hush and* stillness of this
solemn hour, let us not look down as
into a grave of dead hopes, as upon
the tenement of departed souls; but
let us turn shining faces towards the
light of two beautiful lives, whose
memories cannot be taken from us.
Life and death, the twin mysteries
of all forms, from the blade of grass
to the human brain, are ever crowd
ing upon us, ever remaining unsolved.
We can only yield in silence to the
inevitable.
Lights have gone out; two stars in
the firmament of the United Daugh
ters of Confederacy have disappear
ed; members whose lives have been
spent with us, whose days have been
devoted to service—now their labors
are over, and we can well say of
each, “Servant of God, well done;
peace be unto thee forever.”
We are devoutly thankful for
their useful lives and their un
swerving loyalty and devotion to
this noble cause. If they who
have passed through th" Gate
of Rest can be concerned about the
happenings on this earth, we have
no doubt but that they who have
preceded us to the Great Beyond
are looking down from their glory
heights upon us with the most pro
found concern. May this thought
inspire us to noble living, doing and
serving.
To the .grief stricken loved ones,
whose joy has become sorrow, and
whose roses seem but ashes in this
hour of darkness, we extend the
hand of sympathy, mingle our lamen
tations with theirs, and with them
look to another time and place,
where we shall meet and greet our
beloved friends again, and whet# the
smile of God shall kiss away our
bitter, blinding tears.
Sweet friends, beloved co-workers,
we bid thee not good-bye, but with
chastened spirits, we devoutly pray,
“God be with us till we meet”—in the
Sun-bright Clime.
“Have you heard, have you heard, of
the Sun-bright Clime,
Undimmed by sorrow and unhurt by
time;
Where age hath no power o’er the
fadeless frame.
Where the eye is fire and the heart
is flame,
Have you heard of that Sun-bright
Clime?
“There are myriad souls with crowns
of light,
And garments of beauty clear and
white,
They dwell in their immortal bowers,
Mid changeless hues of fadeless
flowers,
Where, amid all things that are fair,
is given,
The Home of the Just, and its name
is Heaven—
The name of that Sun-bright Clime.”
Pres. Jefferson Chap., U. D. C.
