Memento Mori. In the memory of the REV. EDWARD SPRAGUE, A.M.
the second Pastor of the Church in Dublin, who for more than 40 years preached the word of God and broke the bread of life to this christian Society. He entered on the stage of Publick action, at the commencement of the late glo- rious Revolution, of which he was a zealous advocate, fully imbibing its Spirit, and remaining through life the friend of liberty civil and religious, he feared God above many from his youth, sincerely devoted himself to his service, in the Gospel of his Son, and uni- ted orthodoxy with charity. Possessing a large estate, his regard for the town in which he lived, prompted him, after making a few legacies to particular friends, to bequeath them the remainder of his property for the pious and laudable purpose of supporting the Gospel & schools. Having been in private life cheerful and courteous, a lover of good men, and given to hospital- ity, having in the discharge of ministerial duty been assiduous, solemn, faithfull; at length laden with accumulated infirmities, and hastened by a fatal occurrence, he languished a few days, and then calmly fell asleep in a firm belief of that Gospel he preached to others.
Let fainting nature sink to rest, Within its clay-cold bed, Till with refulgent glory drest, It wakens from the dead: What though the body in the dust be laid, Breathless and mouldering in awful shade! Faith views a bright reversion in the skies, When all the saints, reanimated, rise.

HISTORY OF DUBLIN
Natus Bostoniae Maii 20, 1750. Laurea Baccalaureali Cantabrigiae donatus, 1770, Magistrali, 1773. Pastorali officio inductus, Oct. 12, 1777. Decessit Dec. 16, 1817, Annoque Aetatis suae 68.
Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.
[In the former History of Dublin, in the chapter on ecclesiastical history, which we have followed in a previous chapter, the spelling and punctuation of these inscriptions were modified to suit modern usage.]
[The translation of the Latin portion of the preceding inscription is as follows: "Born in Boston, May 20, 1750, received the degree of Bachelor of Arts at Cam- bridge (Harvard), 1770; that of Master, 1773. Ordained to the pastoral office, Oct. 12, 1777. Died, Dec. 16, 1817, in the 68th year of his age." The date of the ordina- tion, Oct. 12, 1777, is erroneous. It should have been inscribed Nov. 12, 1777. This inscription and the following were written by Rev. Elijah Dunbar of Peterborough.]
Beneath this stone, lies the mortal part of MRS. HANNAH SPRAGUE, consort of the REV. EDWARD SPRAGUE
who died July 10, 1818, aged 80 yrs.
In the several spheres of a wife, a neighbor, a Christian, and partner in the ministerial relation, she moved with dignity and use- fulness, & sacred esteem. The religion of Jesus was the choice, & ornament of her youth, the guide and support of her riper years; & the refuge, & solace of her decli- ning age. While her hopes of Salvation res- ted entirely on the unmerited grace of God in Christ; she had no confidence in any faith but that, which works by love. Her benev- olence, ever active, met the needy at the door, and the poor she never sent empty away. She was the faithful Almoner of the goods entrusted her by providence and it could
be truly said of her, that she fed the hungry, clothed the naked, visited the sick, and entertained the stranger. The cause of Zion lay near her heart in life, and was not forgotten in her death.
That her property might aid this cause, when she sleeps in dust, she bequeathed the princi-

pal part of her estate to the N. H. Mis- sionary Society. Reader, If thou hast wealth, influence, piety, learn the art of employing thy talents, in doing good, and thou shalt never want a surving friend to write, over thy grave: "The memory of the just is blessed";
nor a smiling Savior, in the Great day, to hail thee with :
Well done, thou good and faithful servant, enter into the joy of thy Lord.
