Mary K. West, wife of Mr. J. 11 West, departed thi* life May 20, 1801, at the age of 48 yearn She was a devoted wife aad a kind and affectionate mother. She leave* a husband and seven children to mourn her death. During her Illness which lasted several week*, she Buffered the most excruciat ing pain, but amidst Jt all *bo never murmured agiinst the will of her 0* d; calmly aud implicitly resting upon the promises of the crucified One. That super-humau power in her soul, born of God, enabled her to exclaim “All is well!” Wlmt a llf«* the ChrUtUn Ifv* 1 Wh it a <le*th the rlghteou* diet Oh that ail infidels and skeptics could witness the scenes that surround the death-beds of such a servant of God. It seems to its they would bo fully persuad ed that the “Curtain will surely Rise,” aud that to the Christian it rDos upon a glorious eternity, never to fall again. She was an active member of tho Methodist church and did a noble work both in the church and Sunday school. She possessed especial talent for in structing children and the m >st touch ing scene of her death-bed was when her little Sunday school class would come with tearful eyes to bid their loving teacher a last adieu. She would often ask them to sing to her the old Sunday school songs, but in tho effort their little hearts would break down in grief and they would have to depart from her in silenco. Sister West did not confine her Christ ian work to children alone, but many grown people all over tho country point to her as their guiding star to tho “Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of tiie world.” To the loved ones mourning her death we would say: Let not your heart bo troubled; yon bollovo In God, believe also in his son Jesus Christ, and then when life’s ocean wave shall have fallen asleep on eternity’s peaceful bosom, you will meet her in that house “not made by bands, eternal and in tli/> heavens.” She is gone; gone forever from earth but she is gone to a far bolter realm, there !o live a life of joy and peaco forever.
