      She was graduated from Boxford Academy, was a proficient scholar, Latin being her favorite study. Even during the latter years of her life, she frequently repeated the Latin fables learned in childhood. She was a rare woman, one on whom the burden of years rested lightly, and whose heart had kept its youth. Her trust in her Heavenly Father never faltered, and His leading was right, even though she could not understand it. She was possessed of a very genial, sympathetic nature, and was the confidant and comforter of the sick, the troubled, and the afflicted. Her long life was one of love and devotion to her husband and children. She died in Boston, June 2, 1894.
