She died full of hope * When she looked on her children and thought upon their tender helpless age , a mother ' s feelings wounded her heart : but she was consoled with
the reflection that they were in the hands of a good God , who ordered all events for the best , though his creatures might not be able to perceive it . The most
painful sufferings could not destroy her feelings of gratitude to the Divine Disposer of all things , that every thing was amply provided that was necessary to lighten or alleviate her pains .
She has left a sorrowing family , who in the midst of their grief console themselves with the hope which cheered her in her last hours , that the time will come
when those connexions which affection has formed arid virtue established may be revived , and freed from human frailties and imperfections be rendered permanent and eternal .

of divine revelation , and after reading much on the subject on both , sides , was fully satisfied with , them . As" to his religious sentiments he was a decided Unitarian . Two days before his d ^ ath having declared his conviction that he
should not recover , he was asked whether his mind was made up as to his future state * He answered that he was perfectly easy on that point ; adding emphatically , < c If it were not so , it would be too late now . I have no idea of a
death bed repentance . ' His last moments of apparent self collectedness , after paroxysms of severe suffering , were expressive of an entire resignation and composure of mind ; to which may be addict the utterance of a short tribute of
respect for a long known and highly valued friend who stood by him . The address at his interment was delivered by his friend Mr . John Marsom ; and the Rev . J .
Gilchrist , of . Worship Street , on whose preaching Nlr . Fuller usually attended , in a discourse adapted to the' occasion , gave a brief but decided and comprehensive testimony to the superiority of his mental powers and acquirements , and the Solid worth of his charac .
