come;" with many more expressions of similar import. After resting awhile, he wished two of his acquaintance to be sent for, and addressed each, in a striking manner. The exertion was almost more than his bodily frame could bear, and, for some hours, he appeared to be dying, but he again rallied. On more than one occasion, he referred to the exercise he had passed through this day, and spoke of the sweet peace with which he had afterwards been favoured, and, in alluding to the support he had received, he added, "It was by the help of the Spirit of my

Saviour."

On the 27th, he remarked with tears, "Week after week, and month after month, have I gone to our little meeting, and all has been dark, though I tried, at times, to draw nigh to God; and I have come home and read some trifling book! But," he added, "I can say, however wicked I have been, that I have rarely, since I left school, omitted to read a psalm, or a portion of one, before going to bed; and I have often prayed, though too often in my own strength." One of his relatives going to his bedside the following morning, the dear invalid said, "Oh! I have a precious Saviour, and he has been near to me this morning. He is precious!"

The desire being expressed, that our hearts might be filled with gratitude and praise to the Almighty, for his lovingkindness and tender mercies, he looked up, and said, “I feel so full of love." He remarked, also, how kindly he had been cared for a poor sinner; spoke of the goodness of his Saviour, and said that all seemed clear. On the 29th, he sent a message of love to an absent relative, adding, 'Tell her that I get weaker, but the Lord sustains me, and I feel a full assurance that he will keep me to the end." He alluded to Friends assembling at the Quarterly Meeting, and said, "What a privilege it is to attend such meetings," and in reference to that in the Twelfth month, he added, "it was a favoured one; my faith was strengthened, and my eyes opened to see some things that had before been dark to me."

During the last two days of his life, there was, at times, a degree of bodily restlessness which was distressing to witness, and his mind wandered much. But as his strength sank, he became calmer, and, not long before the close, he was clearly understood to say, "My mouth is so parched, I cannot speak to praise Him."

Shortly afterwards his purified spirit gently passed from its earthly tabernacle, and, through

the merits and mercy of his Saviour, we thankfully believe, that he is now for ever at rest, in the heavenly city, none of whose inhabitants can say "I am sick," and the people who dwell therein are forgiven their iniquities.

59 9mo. 10 1851 The life of this dear Friend is instructive, as an illustration of the truth that, to the rightly disposed mind, some particular sphere of usefulness is ever open. He was born at Wandsworth in Surrey, in the year 1792, and was the eldest son of Samuel and Katharine West. From early youth he was the subject of deep religious impression, and often
