In
Loving Memory
of
Henry Hardcastle
of 247 Briercliffe Road Burnley
Who departed this life
July 5th 1907
In his 71st year
And was interred at
Haggate Baptist Chapel
On July 9th
If love and care could death prevent
His days on earth would have long been spent
His life was desired but God did see,
Eternal life was best for thee
We loved him in life, he is dear to us still
But in grief we must bend to God's Holy Will
Our sorrow was great, our loss hard to bear,
But angels, dear father, will tend you with care
