J 9 tir DEAR OLD ROCKER . . I'm never alone at my Mase Even when no one is there, For I found a very comforting Harry J. Munds, formerly pf Lakeside, died Monday January 8th in his 90th year at the Dearness Home, London, where he has been a resident for the past five years. Born in Kent County, England, Mr. Munds married his wife, the former Florence Smith, who survives in 1909 and the couple emigrated to Canada that same year. They first resided in West Zorra Township, later moving to Lakeside where Mr. Munds was employed with the C.P.R. sec- friend In a dear, old, rocking chair. It consoled the crying infants, Eased my aches and pains, Heard all the conversations, Listened to losses and gains. As I gently pat the head-rest, Stroke the cushions growing bare, I recall all my little children Who were rocked to dream.. land there. Each child had his favorite story --l always tried my best to please--- [ As they crowded in this dear, old rocker Across my shoulder, lap and knees. So, at night when I'm very _ tired, But in bed I can find no sleep, We share a quiet, secret Harry J. Munds Was Former lakeside Resident tryst-- My rocker and I count sheep.
