Of late years she grew weak and could
not be so active in her office as she
wished, nevertheless her mind was continu-
ally employed for the wellfare of her
Choir. Great as her delight had been in the
beginning, to see her Choir in such an in-
creasing and florishing way, so great
was her concern of late years to see it
gradually declining in number and but
few new ones coming in. So much the
more she wished and prayed that the
few remaining might truly value their
lot of grace and enjoy the blessings &
privileges, which were so precious to
herself. For as to her own person she
regretted exceedingly, that in her latter
days old age & weakness prevented
her attending every opportunity for
edification & encouragement as much
as she wished to do. May the 1st<date> </date>
1802 she was seized with a paralytic
stroke, but recovered so far again that she
on the 4th of May could attend the meetings
///
in our house. During this winter, her
weakness increased, & she was much confined
to her room. Febr. 15th 1803, she had
another stroke, which quite took away
the use of her right side, & the next day
she had strong convulsions so that we
all expected her dissolution . She had
often expressed a wish for B. Benade to
pray with her at her departure which
was now done, and after the prayer
the blessing of the Lord was pronoun-
ced over her. The feeling of the peace
of God on this occasion will leave a
deep impression on the minds of all
them who were present. After the
first paroxysm she fell asleep and
slumbered for the the most part; but when
she between times awoke she seemed
to be sensible, tho' her speech was so
far gone, that she could only say yes
or no to the questions asked. The 18th
some Sisters assembled in her room to
sing some verses expressing our fore-
taste of that happy lot to be at home
