The de ceased was a consistent member of the Christian church, and her funeral was largely attended from that church in Girard. All her children attended her and conversed with her during her last hours, she being conscious to the last moment. All she desired was rest, and we are assured she went to Him who said: "Come unto Me and I will give you rest." "Our mother's lost her youthfulness, we see it every day, And feel more drearily the truth, one soon must pass away. Oh! Even now the 'boatman pale' we tear is hovering nigh; Waiting with white sails all unfurled, He will not heed our cry.
