Strain - In Bolinas, October 20, Ida Jane, beloved daughter of the late John and Eleanor Strain, aged 12 years, 8 months and 24 days. The following four lines include a remark she made just before the angels beckoned her away; "Oh, mamma you will miss My good-night kiss, I know, Oh, mamma, do not mourn for me, Jesus calls me, and I want to go." Oh, Ida I will miss you- Your loss I'll deeply feel; 'Tis God that has bereft me, But He can all my sorrows heal. E.S. When death comes to us, whether to the young or the aged, it leaves us in sadness. But when it snatches from our midst our brightest ornaments it is peculiarly distressing. Such was our beautiful Ida, the favorite of teachers and schoolmates, the light of her home, and the joy of a widowed mother's heart. Her gentle spirit, too good and pure for this world, has winged its way to that bright home above, where she will await her loved ones who still longer here. M. Published Marin Journal October 25, 1877 A Mother's Lament I had a little daughter, The fairest in my eyes that e'er was seen, And others praised her heavenly look serene, She withered in an hour! A little love I had, That down from Heaven into my bosom flew, The broken cloud-rifts of my life's sky through, And made my being glad. O, my sweet darling dove; How closely she was nestled to my heart! But soon she spread her pinions to depart, Back to her home above. Just at the mid of day - Day that brought to me the saddest night, Suddenly darkening the world's great light, My birdling flew away. O, Ida, thou wert too pure for earth! My flower, O! my own precious child! The Heaven light shone within thy blue eyes mild, An angel from they birth. And thou to Heaven hast flown! We laid thy beauteous clay down to its rest, With breaking hearts, in saddest sack cloth dressed And stifled moan. My beautiful, my own, Thy feet run glad the Heavenly way, While I grope sorrowing on the earth to-day, Toward where they dust is sown. Father in Heaven above, Help me to upward raise my tear dimmed eyes To where a cherub beckons from the skies, With radiant smiles of love. My Ida is not lost, But only gone a little while before, To wait my coming on the "shining shore," Death's narrow stream across. My child I will not say farewell, For we shall meet again In that blessed vale, Where there's no parting pain. E.S. Bolinas, August, 1878 Published Marin Journal* August 15, 1878
