her domestic affairs; her patient and christian en-
durarte cf the adverse circumstances Of life consti
tu,ed her model of woman at home. Although
she was highly appreciated by all who knew her,
and her many friends drop the tear Of sorrow for
her sudden and melancholy removal from among
them. yet it was in the bosom Of her family only
that her worth was really known and it is there
her loss will be most deeply felt. a large family

anxious care and attention which only such mother
could bestow but to them she has left the precious

teachers and fellow students, and would have re-
turned to her home in few months 10 cheer and

therefore, had been as bright picture. without

During her last illness she was resigned TO the
will of God concerning her, and died trusting in
the merits Of Christ for salvation. And her mother

the comfortable assurance that she, for whom they
best is not unmixed with sorrow, into that better

wipes all tears from the eyes OF his people.
