— And many who visited him during his illness, and even in his dy- ing hours, were witnesses of this. Never have I beheld one less agi- tated in prospect of death. He spoke of it, not as of an event which must happen, and for which he had been preparing himself by the principles of a stoical philosophy— not as of an unending sleep, where no consciousness of existence should be felt, and where the waters of oblivion should wash out all remembrance of the past — but he viewed it rationally, as a ...winding up of the affairs of this 11 life, which was to be followed by a rigid scrutiny into all his acts, and principles, and motives. Sensible, as every hprn it, dying man must be, that in the judgment of an all-wise and holy God, there would be found many delinquencies and errors which needed a satisfactory atonement, with faith in the record which God had giv- en of his son, he reposed in the merits of the sacrifice which he had offered for the sins of the whole world. Experiencing the peace and joy which attend upon a sense of sins forgiven, he spoke of death as though he were " prepared ;" and not only prepared, but cheerfully willing and ready to go.
