Goth inst, at his residence in Franklin,
Conn. He was in his Goth year
About a week before his decease, his

long journey, she reached tins city from

board the Aierander Scott and soon she
was surrounded by her children. Her
son was the first TO zee her, and he has-
tened to inform his sister Of their moth
er's arrival. They me,-ihe mother
and the daughter-in one long embrace,
which only ended as the infrm me lhcr
sank with excitement to the floor. She
had swooned away in the rap,urous en-
joyment Of beholding once more a
daughter so long lost. She pronounced
Il blessing upon her children, and faint
ell away. Whenever restored to con-
sciousness, the sight Of her children, and
the pleasing recollection Of their pres
ence, would overcome her with emotions,
and again and again she would faint in
their arms. Physicians were called to
her aid, but could afford her no relief
For two days she continued in this con.
dition, until worn out by fatigue and
excltcmc 1t, exhausted nature gave way,
and the mother now sleeps wcll'' in
the new green earth Of her new-made
home. How strange, how sorrowful,
