and domestic virtues, united 10 an amount OF
piety and moral courage too rarely exhibited,
she was ga burning and shining light" Ar

faithfully advocate it, she was ever an Affection
ate and trustworthy counsellor to the ministry
and membership of the Baptist Church, which
was blessed with her fellowship for abou. twelve
years.
Notwi,hs.a niing the pressure of domestic du,
ties, she was ever ready to minister to the sick
and the Borrowing, and by benevolencc wisely
exercised, she was true and tried friend to the
poor and needy.
We learn from friend that her departure was
marked by a ealmness and serenity such as
would be anticipated from life Of unblcinishcd
rectitude and true devotion. Apprised by a
physician that her stay on earth was drawing to
close, she called her family around her, gave
directions as to the arrangement Of her secular
affairs, with such parting advice as her wasting
strength pOrmt.cd-shc then bid them all adcu,
and cheerfaly resigned them, with htfdtpatting
spirit, into the hands of Him who has said al

husband, "Iam going TO Jesus"

cath the Spirit, for thcy rest from their labors
and their works do follow them"
