Farewell dear mother sweet thy rest
Weary with years and with pain
Farewell till in some happy places
We shall behold thy face again.

Farewell my wife and children all
From you a father Christ doth call
Morn not for me, it is in vain
To call me to your sight again.

Note: The Ramsey family had the Penbro (Webster County) Post Office that was located near Windy Gap. Penbro and Windy Gap were very near the location of the Ramsey graves.
