Memorial Card
Note: be sure to scroll down to the comments for the input of a reader with information on the likely child, with birth and death information and the names of his parents.
In Loving Memory of
William [I can't decipher his middle initial] Webber, [presumably William J. Webber?]
Died
Oct. 3, 1898,
Age 1 yr 2 months 25 days
The little crib is empty now
The little clothes laid by,
A mother's hope, a father's joy,
In Death's cold arm doth lie.
Go, little darling, to thy home,
On yonder blissful shore;
We miss thee here, but soon will come,
Where thou hast gone before.
