In MEMORIAM
PERRETT- In loving memory of our dear father, Mr. Thomas Perrett, who passed away March 16, 1926; also dear mother, who passed away Dec. 19, 1930.

Defenders of God's cause were they,
Fearless in the strength from on high;
Maintaining right, denouncing wrong,
It is not death for such to die.
Across the gulf to Heaven's shore
Their spirit soared on Angel's wing,
All winter for them, now is past,
Spring comes to them, eternal spring.

Sadly missed by three daughters, Mrs. D. H. Misener, Lynedoch; Mrs. Richard Louks, Walsingham and Miss Edith Perrett, Courtland.
