county, Va, Mrs. REBECoA GILKEsoN, wife of
James Gikeson, and sister of Rev. W. W. Trim
BILE, of Missouri, aged 65 years.
A child of the covenant, reared under the best
Christian Influences, Mrs Gilkeson early yielded
her heart to the faith of Jesus, and by long and
consistent department adorned the doctrine OF her
Saviour. She was for many years useful and ex-
empary member Of Hebron church. In her tongue
was ever the law of kindness, and while she looked
well 10 the ways of her household she was oonsld-
crate of the wants Of the poor To her pastor
family she endeared herself by those little nameess
tokens of regard that are valued beyond their IN
trinso worth, as testimonials of affectionate con-
sideration She lived to gOrily God, and her life
was shining illustration of the power OF divine
grace, 10 moulding into beautiful harmony and
symmetry the elements of a Christian character
Her living desire, and her dying exhortatlon and
PRAYER were that all her children and relatives
might embrace that same Saviour who comtorted
her when living, aud amply sustained her when
diving. To her pastor she said, some weeks before
her desth, "All is peace, oil my trust IS IN the
merits of my erucfed Redeemer," quoting at the
same time the line Of Toplady, Nothing IN my

needed to ask how she died, for all knew how she

with great patience she testified abundsnty to the
