venerable clOckmaker Of Boston, when on q
visit to the White House, in Madison admin
istratiOn, where he was treated by that excel
lent President with much more attention than
his want of time usually allowed; for Mr..
Willard was quite as remarkable In his own
way as the Chief Magistrate himself. Mr..
Madison took great pains to show. him the

under his want Of knowledge, and did not fll-
ly recover his self possession until returning
to the President private parlOr, he was shown

he removed the works from the case, and in .
few minutes their multiudiRous partswe cat

the Presidents table. my friend, my friend

Willard, looking over his glasses, and chuck

few minutes suffieed him to putthe wondertn
clock together again, and set it agoing, 70 thl
no little admiration and amusement Of his Do
tinguished host. Mr.. Madison aiterwardi
told the story Of Mr.. Willard and his clock
with infinite gustO.

much loved and esteemed Sister, Su,
sannah Hunter, who has long been q
member Of Olive Branch U. No. 2
and as such has been numbered among

the oldest and most devoted member
in our Order. Therefore
Resolved, That in the death of Sis
ter Hunter, we mourn the loss of on
whose meek and Cody spirit was eve
active in the great cause of Temper
ance; one whose pious zeal has eve
made her example worthy ofimitation
and one whose whole life, as far as he
history is known to US, has been tina
of self.denial and humble faith in til
great Redeemer.
Resolved, That we deeply sympt
thize with her bereaved family, a
though we can truly say, that what
our loss is greatly her gain; and ma
her triumphant death be sanctifed
us all, and enable. US to say from o
hearts, " Let me die the death of Il
righteous, and may my last end
like hers"
ReSOlusd, That as a tribute of !
spect to her memory, we wear Il
usual badge of mourning during q
Session, and that the Charter
shrouded during the Quarter.
ReSOLred, That copy Of these r,
olutions be forwarded to the bereav
family, with the earnest prayer to c
Heavenly Father, to prepare US W
them, to meet her in that Home whe
age brings no decay, and where uni
has no end.
