A Tribute of Respect to Bishop Burton

Improvement Era, vol. 11, no. 2, December 1907, pp. 137 to 138

Curtis, Theo. E.

A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT TO BISHOP BURTON. Not dead : this is a sweet release. He sleepeth in the arms of peace, Who wielded well truth's mighty sword, In the high service of his Lord. And now the victory hath come, And crowned with Honor goeth home. His long and noble pilgrimage In glory ends. His heritage? Not yonder 'neath the maple boughs, A mansion in our Father's House! Salt Lake City, Utah. Theo. E. Curtis.

J-"hoio by C. H. Johnson GENERAL ROBERT TAYLOR BURTON. Born October 25, 1821; Died November 11, 1907. (See page'<159).
