I MISS WESLEY. 151 have known her go into a barrack-room, where a soldier and his wife were having a drunken tight, and separate them, kneel- ing and praying with them. She could touch their hearts when they were hardened to every other influence. It was the same with the roughest boys, those that no one else could manage yielded and softened to her. The soldiers used to say that one of their greatest treats was to have a letter from her, which they carefully kept. Her letters were always charm...ing, thoroughly characteristic, full of graceful ideas, and tastefully worded, as well as sympathetic and kind. Her heart was so large that it seemed to have a special place for all she knew. It might be truly said of her, " Love smote the chord of self, which, trembling, passed in music out of sight. " It was almost amusing in walk- ing down the street, to notice how frequently she stopped to speak to some one, generally the poor and lowly, and to watch their faces light up at the word of encouragement and gracious smile she would be sure to give them.
