Yours truly

'8to#kton, Ga., July 15th 1911.
In loving remembrance of our
'dear Brother Robert Reppard In¬
man, died June 10th 1911, mem¬
ber of Stockton Camp No. 303 W.
W.; age 28 years, 6 month, 13
'days.
This is a bright glad beautiful
world fragrant with the odor of
'Flowers, tuneful with the songs of
birds, resplendent with the glories
of wirth > 9ea ’ and sk T- aT,d .? et its
attractions are unnoticed by us-,
for grim merciless death has ap¬
peared in our Camp and snatched
from us our dear Brother so dearly
‘loved. The sky is hung with black
Clouded curtains, our vision is
overcast with the gloom of sorrow
[and every land that strikes our
eves'has in it a cadence of despair.
■Without the presence of that one
Who'has gone before, our Camp
iadeed seems empty and cheerless
'to ns and in our hearts there is
a dreary dismal aching void. The
only consolation is the sweet real¬
ization of the past, and that our
beloved Brother is at peace. The
one upon whom all our affections
were placed Is now in that land
Where the wicked cease from tron-
ble and the werry are at rest. Bend
’Ing'Over the open coffin looking
at-the’folded hands which will
never clasp ours again in this
world, gazing upon the closed
eyesiu which We will never more
see our image reflected on this
earth, >we are made to tremble
with emotion. Our scalding tear
fall at? we realize that our earthly
brotherhood «ith this oue fs for-
ever at an end, and as stated be¬
fore our mnly consolation is that
ou-r dear Brother has heard from
Uhe -Father's lips; “Well done
tbou good rand faithful servant
enter thou into the joy of thy
Lord.’'' "Otur-consolation is found
in Sound in a consideration of the
feet that our treasure is in heaven
The poor worn form will never
more Be recked with the agonies
* P^^Dng „ is at an end. But
be ^^le while until
we will cross the -dark river and
OHr ^ Brothe on the other
Klw>re and untiI then we will find
such thoughts as
^ alwe Md in testifying to our
faithful memery of of the depart
ed.
’Tis hard to break ihe tender cord,
When love has bound the heart,
'Tis hard so hard to speak the word
We must forever part,
Dearest loved one, we must iay
thee.
In the peaceful grave embrace,
But the memory will lie cherished,
Till we see thy heavenly face
