The news of Miss Ellis's departure from among us filled us all with
grief and regret; and yet we feel she is so sure to continue her
good work there, that we ought not to _regret_. What a delightful
awakening for her when, with no feeling of weakness or pain, she
opens her eyes to find herself surrounded by those who have gone
before, whose lives she had gladdened here, and to learn that part
of her mission there is to meet and welcome her host of friends,
personal and parochial, as they follow her over there! How many
people will miss her here! Ten times one is ten. Their number
cannot be estimated.
