"Asleep in Jesus, blessed rest,n
1t is with heartfelt sorrow that record the
demise of this most estimable young lady, but
our kind Heavenly Father hath called her home
to heaven, and we dare not murmur, for all
HIS works are holy. Nancy was beautiful
young lady and a devoted Christian; and every
one that knew her esteemed her. She was q
member of the NJ. E. Church, and firm believer
in the Lord Jesus Christ, who, she firmly be-
lieved, would save her precious soul But alas |!
our dear sister in Christ has gone from us, and
we shall see her beautiful face no more But it
is our consolation to know that she is living
still, and that her pure spirit has been carried
by bright angels through the "gatcs of pearl"
into the glorious realms of Paradise, where she
will sing sweet anthems of praise to her Blessed
Redeemer in a world of light for evcrmore.-
Let us prepare to meet our dear friend "ovcr
