ANN NEWTH are respectfully

Nelson Evening Mail, Thursday, March 17th, 1921:
IN MEMORIAM
NEWTH.-  In Loving Memory of my
dear mother, Mary Ann Newth, who
passed away 17th March, 1920.

Thou are not forgotten, dearest mother,
Or will thou ever be,
So long as life and memory last,
We will remember thee.

Sweet is the sleep, you so much needed,
Free from sorrow, care and pain;
Thinking of you now so peaceful,
We could not wish you here again.

(Inserted by her loving daughter and son-in-law, E. and M. Jacobsen.)

(Maud Rose Newth (b. 1891) married Ernest Frank Jacobsen, both died 1950's and buried in Wakapuaka).
