The following notice OF Mrs. Celia
j. Leach, who died 81 Port Henry, Prov
ince OatArio, Canada, April 4, 1871, l.
from the ZioH's Herald, After eight
short months Of welded life, eousump-
ton finished its insiduous work upon
her and carried her away from the arms
OF a sotely bereaved husband and q host
OF friends who mourn her early death.
Three years before, while visiting at
MiddletowD, Conn, she gave her heart
TO Christ aud connected herself with the
church. Her after life was one OF decid-
ed pieiy in careful harmony with the
Christian profession. Her voice was
singularly sweet and powerful. She de-
lighted TO use il 10 the songs OF the sane.
tusry Us well ~ in the social circles OF
Der friends. Those who have heard it
will never forget The SOULFUL richness of
Its tones nor the junction. with which she
rendered sacred music and poetry. Her
death illustrated her character. In re.
sisting disease she showed the energy
aud determination that marked her life.
In patience, conceslment of suffering,
cheerfulness aud hope she strove to save
her friends from pain aud apprehension
But when the hour OF trial came she was
ready. Her farewells TO her dear ones
were as calm as IL she was about to take
u pleasant journey. Her dying words
were 'Jesus take me' and al am so glad
| love the Lord" SO she sleeps until her
Lord shall come.
