Rev. John S. Sewall has written the following
tribute to the memory of Mrs. Field
"Ten years ago the venerable and beloved
Dr; Field passed on to his reward. Today his
widow follows him, gentle soul, a loving wife,
devoted friend, She will long be remem-
bered not only in the circles of friendship but
IN much wider range of acquaintance for her
kindness and courtesy, for her conscientious
and consistent life, for her love of flowers and
all things beautiful, for her genial hospitality
bestowed in SO many and SO friendly ways upon
figh and low, rich and poor alike. The closing
scenes OF her life were in harmony with her
lacid nature. The approach of death was slow
and peaceful. Her patience, her solicitude for
the comfort of those around her, her kindly,
greeting and cheerful smile, were not only
part of her nature but also token of the quiet
assurance with which she rested upon the
great veritles of her Christian faith. Death
came without pain, with no kingly terrors but
rather as white -robed angel bringing the palm
of victory. A life so kindly and serene and
translation SO peaceful, deserves the tribute of
our gratitude and affecuon.''
