Mrs. MARY DTTSsO11ss,, m Tie 76th~y var ;of her
age. During her protracted illness she was the
subject of great bodily affection; yet she bore all
her sufferings with great christian fortitude. No
murmuring expression was ever heard to drop
from her lips. From the time she was first taken
sick she appeared to be conscious of her approach
ing dissolution, yet she was perfectly resigned to
her Makers will Towards the latter part of her
sickness she sunk into lethargy and lay without
speech for several days. but short time before
her death the power of speech again returned,
and on being asked if she thought the religion of
Jesus Christ was sufficient to support her in dy
ing hour, she answered, yes, and shortly after
passed from sin trying world to a land of rest.
She leaves large circle of friends and relations
to mourn her rreparable loss but they mourn not
without hope, for they know their loss is her eer
nal gain, for whilst living her chief joy was the
hope of Heaven and although her friends have
followed her to the grave, and she now sleeps In
the deep and voiceless tomb, that hope which she
cherished her breast when living, has borne her
spirit above every stormy blow, and the shadowy
portals of the tomb has but opened the gate to the
eternal city. A. w. P.
