aged about SO years Thus has passed away
another bright, pure, and holy spirit, leaving a
blank and fearful void in many hearts that
have known her long and loved her well. "The
place that hath known her on earth, shall know
her no more forever" But there will cluster
around her cherished memory many fond recol-
lpctions OF her frank ard generous nature; her
sincere and sympathizing heart; and her unwa-
yerins friendship Her happy spirit has gone
10 the God who gave it, and We shall See her no
more on earth. She cannot come to us, but We

as wife, mother, and friend, may we emulate her
virtues. and cherish the hope OF again meeting
her in those happy realms where virtues like
hers are perennial, aud happiness is never
