Mrs. Hoffman was an Episcopalian, and strongly attached to the principles of her church ; Mrs. Graham was a Presbyterian, and equally ad- hered to her profession ; yet, the ties of natural relationship or sisterhood were not more firm than the attachment of these fe- males in their charitable exertions in favor of the needy. The temper, condescension and perseverance of these humane ladies is a fine comment on Paul's admirable description of active cha- rity described, 1 Cor. xiii. 4 — 7. To gi...ve the reader some view of the benevolent walks of Mrs. Hoffman and Mrs. Graham, I will venture to say, what has been communicated to me by an aged lady of a different religious profession to them, and who is still living. She accompanied them on their visits for two successive winters, commencing with November, and ending with March. They would meet at 10 o'clock in the morning, and continue their visits 'till the dusk of the evening, in search after objects needing compassion. These were sometimes found in garrets, cellars and other places of obscurity, half starved, destitute of ( 30 ) clothing, and perishing Avith cold; while their infant children were clinging lo the breast, and others looking Avishfully for a morsel of bread to satisfy the cravings of hunger.
