glory, cheered her night of sorrow, and she beautifully illustrated the influence of Christian resignation. And her charity was in heavenly unison with her faith. The parish at New Milford, where she resided, all the general institutions of the Church, and numerous other institutions for promoting sound religion and true piety, shared, for more than half a century, her liberal, though often secret, largesses. And multitudes of the poor, throughout her neighborhood, whom she systematically benefitted, will rise up at the great day and call her blessed.

Through the whole course of her painful illness, she continued to exemplify, in a memorable manner, the meekness and humility which were the chief of her characteristic graces. She was in full possession of her faculties of mind, in her old age, and even in her last moments. Conscious of her approaching dissolution, she gathered around her death-bed her devotedly affectionate children, and, with patriarchal composure, having given them and her grandchildren her final counsels and her blessing, she gently sighed, and sunk to sleep in Jesus. The smile that lingered on her countenance, was in keeping with her whole life of confidence in faith, comfort in hope, and perfect charity with the world; and very naturally suggested the thought of her blessedness among departed spirits; so that an unpretending spectator of her silent body, as it was prepared for burial, observed, with honest and eloquent simplicity," She looks as if she were well pleased with her new home."

Among the souls of those who sleep in the Lord Jesus, she now enjoys a gladdening foretaste of that heavenly bliss, which, at the great day, is to be her portion among His ransomed. Oh, may we, with her, and "all those who are departed in the true faith of His holy name, have our perfect consummation and bliss, both in body and soul, in His eternal and everlasting glory, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen."
