long be remembered by every one who
was present. She preached to the prs
oners a regular sermon from the words
elbow shall we escape il we neglect sc
great salvation?" Her remarks were
! listened to with the most intense inter
est. She talked TO those wrecks OF hui
manity with a feeling that only a woman
touched by the emotions OF a mothers
heart could talk with; and when she
gave the invitation for all those who de
sired the prayers of Christian people to
rise 10 their feet almost the entire mum
Der present rose.
When Mrs. Robinson leaves this
place she will carry with her the love
and gratitude of all Christian people
Her labors here have been the most ar
duous, but the prOmptness and enthusI
asm with which she enters into her
work is truly wonderful. She declines
almost all invitations OF a social charac'
ter. and spends her spare moments in
her room at the boarding tent in private
reflection.
