They accompanied the emi grants from that State, who first settled the city of Hud son in the State of new-york. In that place they were married on the 9th of December, 1787. Benjamin was their first child. He was born in H'udson, September 29th, 1789. We have the following account of his mother from her surviving connexions. Her sufferings for many years before her death were great. And her afiiietions, we trust, were sanctified to her soul.' She never made a public profession of religion; this, no doubt, arose in, part from the fact, that there was no regularly organized Church in Hudson till after her death. However, - to use the language of her friends, whose communications are now before me, she was an excellent woman, a possessor of religion, and good evidence that she was born of God; a sainted mother.
