Dearest father, thou art gone;
Never more wilt thou return:
But we hope ere long to be
In that blest abode with thee.
Brother, thou dost dwell in heaven
Now thy long farewell is given,
And with father thou canst sing
Praises to our Savior-King.
Joseph Rittenhouse.
He had another son Tobias
Browand, administrator to his will.
