A MOTHER IN ISRAEL--After a long, active and eminently useful life--the last nineteen months of which were full of physical pain, calmly and patiently borne--Mrs. Lucinda B. Huntoon, wife of George W. Huntoon, Esq., has "entered into the rest that remaineth." On Saturday last, at her residence on Lincoln ave., and in the eightieth year of her age,, "as a shuck of corn cometh in, in its season," she "died in the Lord." It is unneccessary to speak of her well-rounded life to the citizens of Evanston. For thirty-five years, she has resided in this immdeiate neighborhood, and during all of that time, her life has been "a living epistle," attesting her earnest desire "to adorn the doctrine of her Lord and Saviour in all things." Ten days before her death, when she thought the hour of her departure had come, calling her husband and children, and her children's children to her side, she asked that the beautiful hymn "My latest sun is sinking fast," might be sung, and then comforting them with the assurance that although she ws close to the "valley of the shadow," she feared no evil, she bade them all farewell. But the end was not yet. For ten days more she lingered; part of the time she was unconsious, but always, when her mind was clear and unclouded, her utternances testified to a full submission to a Father's will, and a triumphant faith in a Saviour's love. And so at last, she passed away.
The funeral seviced took place in the South Evanston M. E. Church, and were peculiarly impressive, at the close of which the remains were taken to Rosehill, and there interred in the presence of a very large number of sorrowing and sympathizing friends.
