Eloquent in life, Webster was sub

wanted TO know the gradual steps to-
ward dissolution and calmly discussed
them with his physician. At one time.
awakened from a partial stupor which
preceded death. he heard repeated the
words Of the psalm which has smooth
ed the death pillow of many a Christ
ian: Yea. though / walk through the
valley OF the shadow OF death, l will
fear no evil. for thou art with me; thy
rod and thy stan. they comfort me-"
The dying statesman exclaimed, Yes.
thy rod-thy stan-but the fact. the
fact I want"-for he was not certain
whether the words that had been re-
peated TO him were intended as an in
timation that he was already in the
dark valley. Waking up again past
midnight and conscious that he was
living. he uttered the well known
words. II still live" Later he said
something about poetry. and his son
repeated one OF the verses OF Gray's
-Eiegy." He heard IL and smiled. In
