hersclfIn the variuus relations of life witt,
remarkable prudence. As wife and
mother. she was kind aud ailcctinnntc as
n daughter and friend dutiful and ,bi.iny:
Ill short she was one orthosc gentle and
quiet spirits tha, bowed beneath her a!iiic-

rs bright for the future as could be desired
Tor the consolation Of all those size left be

un'imcly dcrarturc.-Co Communicated.

last, Mr.. IaclIcri;h Abncy, aged So wears,
Early i'll the year 1881, lie in company
with his wife attached himself 90 the NJ. T..
Church, while he was yet nnicr Il sense of
his lost ana ruined condition, hv nature
soon after, while pleading with The Lord
IN the woods. in solemn prayer for mercy,
he obtained IL sense Of Gods p.r,!oniug love
Since that time he has often given evidence
i'll the house of The Lord that lc had peace
with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
He was member OF the Church atBcl',anv
about four miles from his residence: and for
some years past there WAS perhaps hut ono
more male member at that place. But
last year early in August there was gra..
ccns revival of the work of God at tl,at
place. AT n meeting Which continued six
days, there were IS added to the church,
and perhaps most of,hcm savinclv convert

that time. During that meeting our cs-
tcemed brother exhibited more zeal for the
cause of God than at any former period of
his life. His sickness was short, and his
death rather unexpected to the most of his
friends; though it seemed not so much so to
himself, for he was heard To say during his
illness, that he would soon be in Il better
world. So unexpected was his departure,
that his soul had left in peace, VIC trust, hc-
fore even his wife (who was present and adj
mins'crinSt hi ncccsstics) knew that g
was dying. So easily was he dismissed
from this world.-- Communicated.
