_ Ere the angels called them _ To the land of fame. _ Cold and changing winters _ O'er their pathway came. _ But with peace and brightness, _ Stept across the flood,- _ Jesus led the dear ones, _ Sprinkled with his blood. Ref. _ Church and school has missed them _ Home and kindred dear! _ Jesus Christ will keep them: _ Absent, yet so near. _ Stormy rages o'ercome, _ Calmly they repose. _ Jesus lead us o'er home _ To each loving rose. Ref. _ Solemn, quiet gardens, _ You remind us now _ Of death and partings. _ Till in dust we bow: _ But we trust the story _ Jesus came and told; _ Greeting once in golory _ In the love we hold. Ref. Records that Grandfather G.W. Bugh had including his German Bible, letters he wrote to his daughter, Lilly, and also a family history he wrote which is attached. Juanita mada trip to New York and obtained some information there which she made available to me. The history I have written does not exactly agree with all the information in Grandfather's but I think the one I have is more accurate. No doubt the history is not entirely accurate and I world apperciate any corrections that anyone may think are mecessary. P.S. Some of the information was obtained from the reminiscences of my parents, and those of Aunt Florence and Aunt Bloomy. I had also the pleasure of actually knowing my grandfather, G. W. Bugh and of talking to him many times when I was a boy. E. B. Bugh, Dec. 19, 1967
