4 months and 27.
Buried the following day in Cot

daughter, and devoted friend. We
sorrow not as others which have no
hope" but trust our beloved friend
and sister has only "fallen asleep in
Jesus" that she is 'forever with the
Lord" that she has passed from the
church on earth to the general as
sembly and church of the FIRST born
whose names are written in Heaven"
that she has tasted the blessedness of
those who Idle in the Lord" and
that though she will no more sing
the songs of Zion with as here, yet
that she has united with those who
sing the ''new song" to Him that
loved US and washed us in His own
blood"
why do we mourn departing friends,
| Or shake at deaths alarms
| lis but the voice that Jesus sends,
| To call them to His arms"
Thou art gone to the grave, and its mansions
forsakine,
Perhaps thy tired spirit in doubt fingered
long;
But the sunshine of Heaven beamed bright on
| thy waking,
| And the song that thou heardest was the Sera-
phim's song" H.
