January 8th, 1959
The members' voice in annual decree
Has named you one who shall o'er see
The record of the cash paid out eke received
In CCF accounts; so minds may be relieved
Of doubt that the great hoard of money fair
Entrusted to my hand has not been thieved
Or may perhaps squandered been, or hid within my lair
But has been safely lodged in Royal's vault
And record kept all thirteen dollars, thirty cents of it.
Will you then kindly sire, I humbly pray.
Ah will you? Suppliant I ask, please name the day
When you will wrestle with this mighty task
And, to my record, add the signature I ask.
--Margret Isabella Burton (my grandmother and the woman in the picture)
Sent to Fred Jernslet to raise him to his duties of auditing the CCF books for Sannich before the annual meeting
