William Henry Smith.

BORN, JUNE 24, 1825. DIED, OCTOBER 6, 1891.

O'er-busy Death, your scythe of late seems reaping

Swiftly our heads of State;

The wise who hold our England's weal in keeping,

The gentle and the great.

GRANVILLE is gone; and now another Warden

Falls with the fading leaf,

Leaving at Hatfield sorrow, and at Hawarden
