BOARDMAN.--Mrs. Lucinda Boardman was born in Junius, Seneca County, New York, March 17, 1799. Nothing is known to the writer of this memoir, of her childhood, except that it is said, she possessed a very amiable disposition. At nineteen years of age she was married to Mr. Elijah Boardman, and at a camp-meeting held in Palmyra; the July following, her burden of guilt was removed, and she was made the happy subject of justifying grace. Shortly after her conversion she joined the Methodist Episcopal church of which she continued a useful member until her death. It is worthy of remark, that as her husband was greatly exercised in his mind about preaching the gospel, believing it his duty and striving to get rid of the impression, determined on the study and practice of medicine; but by her entreaties he was prevailed upon to abandon his purpose, and comply with the obvious dictates of the Spirit of God. Accordingly he was recommended to the Genesee Conference and was received on trial in July 1819, and was appointed to travel in Upper Canada. Sometime in the winter following she accompanied her husband to the field of his ministerial labours, and during the seven remaining years of her life she continued to move with her companion from circuit to circuit. These were seven years of labour and suffering; her constitution was delicate and the circuits on which they were stationed did not always yield a comfortable support.---- But death soon terminated her sufferings. She died about five o'clock, p.m., October 10, 1826, in the Town of Parma, Monroe County, New York. Thus lived and died our much beloved sister Lucinda Boardman in the 28th year of her age. An Appropriate discourse was delivered on the occasion by the Rev. Mr. Randall on Revelation, xiv, 13.
