adonted and placed upon the records:

In the recent removal by death of one of our be
loved managers, Mrs. j. b. Coyle, we feel most
deeply the loss we have sustained in being deprived
of the presence and the faithful afectionate counsel
of one SO long associated with us, and deeply in
terested in every department of our work. And
not onlv to this association did she prove a faithful
friend, but every Christian enterprise was helped
forward by her warm sympathy and effective
operation. The memory of her sweet sanity spirit
will live in the hearts of those associated with
her, and may the example Of her pure Christian
life, whose entire influence was ever for good,
prove an inspiration to many.
