I called jp the three oldest children to see her breathe her last. She expired without a struggle, about twenty minutes past tr-n Jan. "! JOTHAM SEWALL, 115 Jf * o'clock. This morning, she rose herself, and now she sleeps in death ! Such short work has the Lord made ! Only about twelve or fourteen hours have passed since I appre- hended danger, and she is gone ! After her spirit had fled, we again united in prayer, confessing the sovereign right of God to take what he had given, and blessing hi...m for giving her an easy passage from time to eternity, hoping that he had taken her to himself. ' Wednesday, 12th. Awoke this morning in a very tender frame of mind, meditating upon the sudden blow of God's holy providence. The passage, " Show me wherefore thou con- tendest with me, " was in my mind last evening ; and I thought I could not look amiss for sins. They clustered thickly around m'e on every side. I think I " know the rod, and who hath appointed it. " I needed correction. It is, indeed, inex- pressibly painful to think that my dear child must suffer so much here, (and I know not how it is with her in the other world, ) that I might receive the benefit of a correction.
