To my Daughter
 
            I will not wish you stores of wealth                       And
freedom from affliction
            I will not wish you troops of friends                       Then hear
my benediction
            Of those good things be thou posest                       That in
His measure God thinks best
 
            [ …?...  ]
Mother           
            Mary B. Crocker
