How our good Lord, who has been my light and
stay throughout my whole life, will not leave
me now forsake me till my dissolution, and
when it finally comes to that issue:
That I draw my latest breath,
And that Soul and body sever
Them the slaughter'd Lamb & display'd for me
I shall see.
So far her own Narrative.
In her last illness she desired expressly,
that the follow declaration might be
added to her written account:
The holy Ghost at the end of my life has
led me into a School of a very trying nature,
but although I had a much clearer view
of my failings and infirmities than ever be-
fore, my heart nevertheless was more dis-
posed to meditate on the blessed leading
of my dear Savior and to praise & adore Him
for all the love and mercy bestowed upon me,
than to weep and mourn over faults & mis-
demeanors, which He has pardoned".
Now her late husband, the present Wi-
dower contains in the Narrative:
The Seven Years of our married State, were,
as it was, a connected CHain of difficult

Register.
