Our late <persname>S</persname><hi rend="superscript"><persname>r</persname></hi><persname> Nyberg</persname> having ever since her Widowhood
expressed a great desire to end her days in a Congregation, was
accordingly conducted to <placename>England</placename> by her Son in Law, our
<persname>B</persname><hi rend="superscript"><persname>r</persname></hi><persname> Carter</persname>, who went over to <placename>Sweden</placename> on purpose to accomo-
date her. She arrived in <placename>Fulneck</placename> at his House in
<date>July 1795</date> to her inexpressible Joy, as also that of her Son
and Daughter and whole family, with whom she lived
for some Months. But winter drawing on, she found the
distance <persname>B</persname><hi rend="superscript"><persname>r</persname></hi><persname> Carter</persname> lived from the Chapel, considernig her Age
and infirmities, would often unavoidably deprive her of fre-
quenting the meetings. This brought her on the thought of
moving into the Widow's Choir House, which she did before
the Winter commenced; and has often expressedm how thankful
she was for having found there that Peace and tranquility,
which were so agreeable to her; besides being able to attend
the meetings uninterrupitedly, which enjoyment was va-
lued by her above any thing in this world.
Here her Course has been exemplary and edifying,
both her walk and conversation were convincing proofs, that
she spent her time in lose <sic>connexion</sic>  <corr>connection</corr> with her Soul's best
friend, with an earnest desire to be prepared for the great
Change she has experienced. By some papers of hers, where
she noted down her favourite verses, the disposition of her
heart may be gathered:
Thup[?] thou me a feeble Child
Fix O fix my wavering mind
