April 13th, 1868, and d ed August 28 U,, 18St: Her last illness, though a .protracted one, wns singularly free from that intense suffering t which, usually precedes death: From the very first she seem cd' conscious that she must die, and often expressed., herself in a nianner to indicate that the hours of her de parture would be welcome, . She was Ule ul "VF ftuu 1 UXJ vel'1 111 ire Avenue m. unurciL and from that time she was a constant at tendant to Church and Sabbath school,, taking- great delight in all those agencies that tend to develop character and make . life better. Some weeks before her death she startled those, at her bedside by ex claim) og, .wish I could die now' When, asked by her .mother: !why- sh& nhould wish-to die her answer was, ''Because there is no sin in me now. If I should live, perhaps I would not be ready again." ; On another occasion she said, "I ,wisli the angel would come . while I am sick" A few hours before. , ho death she . attempted to sing;, her . voice failings, she contented .-herself with whispering the words, ''Blessed! Jesus." Death, grim monster that he Js, did not 'treat her rudely when he came. In her case there was no "stern ag on v." ".. As quietly as one who is tired sinks into profound slumhety she died. Her bearing throughout -was such as we may expect of one whose trust ., is founded on the Savior. Her evident eagerness to die seems strange, when Ave know how much1 life, had to promise;one so yoimg and beautiful as she. . Her lite presented the "shining .mark? death likes, and ho; aimed his arrows, well. In dying she rose higher than she could have climbed through years of. life for she icutercd the Paradise of God.
