To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of her early religious history I have no details: but among the influences which affected her may be mentioned several of those on whose ministrations in the pulpit she was wont to attend; for the ministry of the word was with her a pleasure and a power. At Troy, two of her pastors were Rev. W. D. Snodgrass, D. D., and Rev. N. S. S. Beman, D. D.; at Cambridgeport, she listened to Rev. W. A. Stearns, D. D., lately president of Amherst College; during her residence at Princeton, she often heard D...rs. Miller and Alexander and Dr. James W. Alexander, and used to recall her delight in the speech of those noted divines. All but one of those clergy- men passed away before her; so had many others who had enriched her life. "I have more friends in heaven" she said to me, "than I have on earth." As respects herself, those who knew her will see her look of remonstrance lest any- thing be said here in the way of eulogy ; it might seem to pain her now to be spoken of at all in this public place. To call her name in any meeting used to appear so unnecessary, if not so out of taste, that standing in this I place, in sight of the familiar seat, whence she used to look toward this pulpit, it is difficult for me to speak the words of sincere esteem and friendship without a kind of self-reproach.
