Mrs. Mann was one Of the excellent Of the earth.
She was one Of the most humble and confding

years, she deservedly enjoyed the highest esteem
Of a very large circle Of acquaintance In her
death, the Reformed Church, to which she be-
longed, has lost an highly esteemed member, and
its pastor, sincere friend. Her last sickness wa
protTactod and sometimes with much suffering.
but she bore it all with that perfect resignation to
the viii Of God, which only the Christian can do.
Those who mourn her death viii find much com
fort in the recollection Of her many virtues and in
her meek exercise Of all the Christian graces,
She now rests in peace as to her body and in hap
piness as to her soul.
