IN MEMORY. (Written in Memory of Mr. August Schlegel) The forge Is all alone. No more the anvil rings; The loss we can’t atone, For Gust is gone No more his smiling face We'll see at his old stand; No one can take his place, Not one in this whole land. He was father to us all. And each-and every man Has been summoned by his call To lend a helping hand. , .... . ' Wo found him true as steel Since he has been with us; He was always at the wheel, And happy, was Old Gus. Not a murmur did you hear, When things were not just right; His voice was full of cheer. And he worked with all his might. Do we miss him, did you say? Each man’s heart is torn and sore, But we know he’s on his way To that bright and happy shore. And all through each man's life, His memory will cling to us; It will help us in each strife, Just to think of dear Old Gus. H. L. L. (Ward Fence Factory Employees)
