His duty nobly done.

In proud and loving memory of
My dear nephew
Trooper William Victor Weaber
Died of wounds in Egypt
June 7th., 1918.
Aged 37 years

No pen can write no tongue can tell
What he went through when he lay ill;
To God alone his pains were known,
He loved him best and took him home.

There are griefs that cannot find comfort
And wounds that cannot be healed,
There are sorrows so deep in our hearts
That cannot be half revealed.

Often my thoughts do wander
To a grave so dear to me,
Where a noble hero true and brave,
Peacefully sleeps in a soldier's grave.

Deeply Mourned.
– Inserted by his loving parents.
