to both the pastor and people of the
NJ. E. church to see her come with
either her son or daughter whenever
she was staying with them and was
able to come.
We shall not easily forget the ex-
preston of her sweet old face as she
used to sit in the pew and eagerly
drink in each word as it fell from
the pastors lips, and in leaving she
would press the hand of both the
pastor and people in a way which
told them more eloquently than
words could have done how much she
had enjoyed the services. She was
a friend to all with whom she came
in contact, q faithful wife and a ten
der, loving mother. Surely her chill
dren and her children's children rise
