she had an abundant entrance into

so long and faithfully.
She will be missed from the large
place she so modestly filled in the
church, the Missionary Society, the
social circle, and the bereaved homes
of her husband adm children.
Therefore be it resolved,
First, That we, the Missionary So
ciety, would place a wreath OF i'm
mortelles to her memory, woult
emulate her beautiful life, and thanl
the Giver of all good for her exam
pie of loving devotion to the interest
of His Kingdom. -,
Second, That we tender the famil
our sincere sympathy and pray tina
her influence may abide, that tn
blessings of the Lord shall extend t
