Partial Letter to William O. Cahoon from D.K. CahoonEntry/Object ID
2000.FIC.02.386Scope and Content
For Joseph Cahoon
The Terrors of death had not power to alarm him,
He felt not his darkness and feared not his sting,
the thought of his Saviors kind mercy, could calm him,
And his spirit, went upwards on Faith ardent wing.
For Lydia Cahoon
Then calm be the spot where her form now reposeth,
May the friends who so loved her, revisit the grave,
and feel though the cold sad her ashes endorseth,
She lives in the presence of him, who can save,
I will send you in my next letter a selection of lines
for Nancy Cahoon, let me hear from you early.
To William O. Cahoon Esq. Yours Truly D.K. Cahoon
