to refer to what she had heard respecting
these, asking for additional information,
and manifesting her profound interest in
his work.
In so long a life she saw many viCissi-
tudcs OF fortune. A full share of the trials
of earth fell to her lot. Most Of those
whom she had known and most iondly
loved, passed Oh before her over In" river
of death. Many remained to cheer her
last days, and to make her comfortable
and happy. Her children and grand
children were devoted TO her, and she re-
paid their devotion with a wealth of love.
To these were added many friends whom
her own bright and loving nature at
tracted to her, and ministered to her, Tor
her own sake. and with her kindred will
sincerely m Ourn her departure. And yet
they sorrow not, as those who have no
hope. Their sorrow is mingled with
brightest hopes and joys. There remains
to them the recollection of a w~ell-spent
life, longer far han hat usually allotted
to the children of men, n life devoted to
domestic and religious duties, a simple,
womanIy, Christian life, bright, loving,
cheerful and CHEEKY to the end-the end
itself illuminated with all that is best and
noblest in the Christians faith and hope
an0 love.
"Life's duty done, as sinks the clay,
Light from it's load the spirit flies;
