The compiler remembers well, in the spring of 1848, Mrs. Brown'spatience in suffering, when she quoted from Job, "All the days of myappointed time will I wait till my change come." This hightly esteemedand beloved wife and mother was a Christian woman, a loving friend andneighbor, whose voice was often heard in the Old Miner Meeting-housebefore 1845, when, in the summer of that year, it was torn down and a newhouse erected on the same lot. The old house was the scene of manyrevivals and large gatherings to the church, in which this good woman, asaint of God, by her spiritual gifts, had an active part. The homestead,beautiful for situation, should be rebuilt, and the grandchildren comeback from the cold Northwest and make glad these hills and valleys as indays gone by.
