Obsequies For
MR. HERBERT LEE SMALLEY

SHAW TEMPLE A.M.E. HON CHURCH 38 Hightower Road, N.W.
Rev. Raymond Hart, Officiating Interment - Greenwood Cemetery
crossing the Bar
Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me And may there be no moaning of the bar When I put out to see
But such a tide as moving seems asleep Too full for sound or foam When that which drew from out The boundless deep Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell. And after that the dark And may there be no sadness of farewell When I embark For though from out our bourne of time and place The flood may bear me far I hope to see my pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar.
