Ffadih p Wm. Robiufon, lau o^Ur, Ddenwith
3 06 Pipta of Madeira Wine, bound to New York.
ON Monday of the h^ Week, departed this Life
at her Seat in Lebanon, Madam FRUM^
BULL, Confer of his Excellent the Governor of
this State, aged sixty one Years and five months.
She was a Daughter of that wife and v^ert^e Mi-
Differ of the Gospel, the late Rev. Mr. Jinn Robto
fon, of Duxbury, her pious Mother wax (adden^y
taken away while (he was 2 Cuid, and left her the
beloved of her Father: and under his wire and ten
der Care, she received a virtuous and polite Educa
tion, becoming the Beauty of her Pe son, the Eleva
tion of her Mind, and the honorable o.aton (he was
defignedto fil. She was tarty married to the great
and good Mat now mourning her L 6 w tinhorn
she lived in perfc& frienufh p and Harmony o%r 45
Years, an am:abh arid exemplary Perera of Conju
gal, Maternal a«d every facial AfrAion.
Joined to mofi comely Features, thread a certain
natural, peculiar Dignity in her Mtin and whole
Deportment through every Scene of Lift, the lamei
accompanied with a graceful Modefly, Condefcenti
on and KirMuefs, as bespoke at once the greatoefs cf
her Souland -he benev Jeace of het Heart, and equal
ly commanded and attested the Efierm apd ref,t^-
fal Love of all her A quainance. But her Bene
volence was more than fecn she never turn'd a dc^f
Ear to the Cry of the Poor, nor was any kind of
Differs in her Power to relieve ever negleAed, yea
{he fought cut and delighted in Opportunities cf do
ing Good, and promoting within her Sphere every
good and charitable Puipofc^ her Circamftanct:#
enabled her to begin early and prfeveie through Life,
in a&in~ >t the benevolent D fire# of her Heart.
The Sum of her Charities has been great, and the
ObjeAs very many ; but still (he had an excellent
Spirit cf P/udehce and Oeconomy, and never eat
the Bread of ITenefs : Her House and all about her
was a striking Exhibition of Regularity and Order,
She was eminently qualified for, and adorned the
honorable Station in which Providence had placed
her. She had many Friends, and not one enemy.
The heart of her Hulled fafely trotted in her, and
her Children arise and call her bleiTed. Mxe than
all thrfe, the had hopefully, the faviog Impressions
of divine G^ce made on her Heart many Years fi icr,
under the Mmifiry of that eminent Servant of God,
t\?t Rrv Dr. Willams, and she became a ferr
ous Profeffor cf Religion, and devout Attendant on
all the Worship and Ordinances of the Gospel, and
ever maintained a fix'd Hope of eternal Salvation
through the Merit# ofChrifi alone. Without Oden
tattoo she wore the Ornaments cf a truly Christian
Spirit.
Her Health had been for several Years, greatly
impaired, tho' by Intervals she enjoyed a very com
fortable State ; th* lift return of her (d;%fcri) Li
nrfs was frvere and in the fhostP^^d o. fi/tDm
unexpectedly released her firm a Worirt of Pam and
Sorrow, to a State (u we doubt not) of ev^h^ihg
Re 4 .
The honorable bereaved Con'ort, has received and
drank this bitter Cup at the ha d of hs heavenly
F^her, without a complaining Word, remembering,
all the loving kindefs cf the Lord, and efpeciallf
his giving and so long continuing to him this to rica
and great a Bkffing. But even J f^s wept for a
Friend, no Wonder thin ifeopicus Years have bath
edhis Face. Bntanunlhzkcn Tufi in the unchange
able F&thfulnefi of God's ev^l^ng Covenant, is
his firm and solid Support.
