Note

A poem written for his grandniece, Martha Rominger, daughter of Rev. Wesley Smith Rominger:

Written
For Martha I Rominger by her
Uncle Joshua Rominger

Happy the Child whose tender years
Receives instruction well
Who hates the sinners path and fears
The road that lead to hell

Twi'l save us, from a thousand snares
To mind religion young
It will preserve our following years
And make our virtue strong.

June the 9th 1896
