IN MEMORIAM
Ferdinand Stahl, died April 6, 1936
The face I loved is now laid low
His loving voice is still
The hand so often clasped in mine
Lies now in death's cold chill
I often sit and think of him
When I am all alone;
For memory is the only thing
That grief can call its Own.
Mrs. Ferdinand Stahl and Family.
April 15, 1937, Manning Monitor
