49000. Vaughn Haskell

Unknown newspaper

In loving memory of our loving son, Vaughn, who died July 1st 1922

In the near and lonely grave-yard
In a cold and silent grave
Lies our dear, loving son,
Whom we tried in vain to save.

Short and sudden was the call
Of one we loved so dear.
But he has gone in body only,
For in spirit we feel him near.

Friends may think we have forgotten
When at times they see us smile,
Little knowing what grief is hidden
Beneath the surface all the while.

Inserted by mother, father and sister.

Mr. And Mrs. J. W. Haskell,
Sister, Mrs, Chelsley Roberts
Port Maitland, N.S.

Charles M. Trask passed away from this life at his home in Port Maitland, N.S., Monday afternoon, Jan. 14th, in the 82nd year of his age. He had been an invalid for over two years. He met with an accident more than eight years ago, which rendered him incapable of working, and has been gradually failing ever since.

He was an energetic and industrious man. Before coming to Port Maitland, he lived at Sandford for many years, and was a member of the Reformed Baptist Church of that place.

The writer called at his home many times since coming to Port Maitland and found him always glad to see me. I called to see him two hours previous to his passing. He was conscious but realized the end was near. He testified to being right with God and ready for death. He was tenderly and patiently cared for by his devoted wife.

He leaves to mourn, besides his wife, two sons, Arnold, of Short Beach, N.S., Herbert, of Stanford, N.S.; one daughter, Mrs. Samuel Harris, of Short Beach, N.S.; one brother, Lewis; one sister, Mrs. Frank Smith, and a large circle of other relatives and friends.
