  • Notes 
    • MRS. ELIZABETH WIGHTMAN, a woman of a a sweet temper and a devout spirit ; above all, a motherly woman, loving her home and her children, and ever seeking their highest good, and making that home one of the sweetest spots on earth. The light of God s law rested upon her heart and all in her house. She was kindness embodied, carrying comfort in her whole bear ing. She reverenced God s holy day and God s sanctuary, and seldom was absent if she could be there. She could sing : " Thine earthly Sabbath, Lord, we love But there s a nobler rest above."
