denly, Mrs. Rebecca kimba!l. Is
Mrs K was the daughter of J. d. II

The rare excellence Of this pious your
lady, and the remarkable affection, Goa
dence and esteem which she enjoyed amort
her acquaintanccs, are, by the undersigne
deemed good reasons Tor Il more palticul,
deineaton Of her character than is usual
given in Il notice Of death
In the present imperfect condition Of :,
cicty, when strange and unhappy incongIu
ties so often mix with and shade the virtue
nf good persons: when truth almost COZ,
tinually torbils us to give free scope to al

character whose blmelcs. ness and ortlc.

ton, from its uniformity and virtues: and
our satisfaction is Greatly increased when We
remember that this character was unGolde,I

But we have HIGHER motive tina, the
relief and qualification cf personal feelings
in payinr this tribute of regard to our dc.
'parted friend. We consider her cy.mplc
and character very instructive. particularly
To yo,,nr pconle. Her life. while il horn

young may gather around them, and how
attractive are the Christian graces in the
morning of life.
Let us pay short tribute to her memory
1t is duty, and we perform it with met
auchoW pleasure Sad indeed is it to real
ize that she is no more! But her charac.
ter was one, it is soothing TO remcmLer.-
The recollection of it comes over the mind
like the uanauilizing breath Of spring 1t
asks no Establishment. 1t would suffer by
Il strained and abored culosy
The character of our beloved sister in
Christ was distinguished by midueSs and
harmony de eieuents were tempered
in her kindly and Lpppilv, This mild and
bland tcmper showed itself in her oynlv
look and act. Her manners, her under
standing. her religion. all received a hue
from it, lust as a soft atmosphere commu-
n;ca,e, its own tender and t,ynouil charac-
ter to every Object and scene viewed through
it. Her uiety was dcep sentiment. 1t had
struck through ond cntwine,, itself with her
