She hated that which was wrong;
She never gave up fighting
Until her breath was gone.

From the Appeal to Reason: A Poem for Mother Jones by Ellis B. Harris
From the Appeal of December 16, 1905:
MOTHER JONES
-----Here's to you, Mother, Mother Jones.
Foe of the sabre,
When Justice, reigning, Wrong dethrones,
Helped by Love's labor,
Among the comrades we extol
Thy name shall blazon on the scroll,
In memory of one great soul,
Dear, kindly neighbor.
