In Memory of Captain Samuel Umstot | AWAY I cannot say, and I will not say, That he is dead - he is just away. With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand, He has wandered into an unknown land, And has left us dreaming, how very fair It need must be, since he lingers there. And you - O you, who so wildly yearn For the old time step and the glad retum, Think of him faring on, as dear In the love of There as the love of Here. Think of him as the same, I say; He is not dead - he is just away. James Whitcomb Riley
