 On the other hand there was the joyful excitement of the coming of ex-Governor Sessions of Providence to the old Cady house and the influx of Rhode Island state officials and military leaders.
 And after the war came the blast of that terrific cyclone whose mem- ory IS handed down by a tombstone in the Killingly burying ground that awful day the hurricane,
 When 1 was in my prime, Blew down my house
 And I was slain and taken out of

 It called out further rhymes and a
 formal ode from Benjamin Cady- Miss Susy Brown, she was cut

 Sc quick and sudden, too; I heard her tell the world farewell,
 And all her friends adieu,
 Captain David Cady died in ITO | having four sons and seven daugh- ters. The widow survived him al most twenty years, still entering into the spirit of what was going on around her. She enjoyed the build. ing up of Killingly Hill after the gloomy days of the Revolution. She welcomed the ministry of Priest At kins, the coming of Dr. Grosvenor, the new store. the great trainings, the society of children and friends. On l her nnety-ninth birthday she insist ed upon taking once more the famil- l far walk to the old Deacon Gay house and the fatigue and exposure hastened the end and this last ill ness brings our second personal word
 In response to query as to her state of mind, from her deaconie grandson. she eheerily answered. To tell the truth. Joe, l have vain thoughts now" Whatever the substance of the persistent thoughts of vanity, We can admire her candor and prolonged vitality and honor her memory, as one who in treuhlous times had been "a part of all she had met"
