and is said TO have been a most
estimable woman in all that makes

i devoted wife and u dutitul moth
er. She had been married only
about two years, and just when all
seemed brightest in prospect for
her and her husband she was call

a devoted husband and two lovely
little children, who have the sym

from earth to the eIysian fields of
immortal glory that she reminded
those who watched by her bedside
Of the lines Of Hood:
We watched her breathing through the
night.
Her breathing soft and low.
AS in her breast the wave Of life
Kept heaving to and fro.
Our very hopes belied our fears,
Our fears our hopes belied;
We thought her dying when she slept,
And sleeping when she died.
