Often in the dear old garden Thev’d wander as of old, And he’d tell her the grand old story The sweetest ever told. Just two dear old people, Their life’s course nearly run Just two loving, contented hearts Which always boat as one. An cl now his true old comrade Is slowly passing away, But a beautiful smile lights up her face, And ho hears her faintly say : “Gcvod-bve, Jack, we'll meet again, Mv Jack so kind and true, In the fairest of all fair gardens, I’ll bo waiting there for you. , One last loving look, then his eyes grenr dim, He held a lifeless hand, His dear and true old comrade L'S dear ana rrue uiu wmiu-uu Had crossed the Borderland. —Contributed by David Scott,
