in memory of Elizabeth Harrison, who had been thirty years in their service, and had conducted herself with such integrity, and anxiety for her master's interest, as drew from him the following epitaph: While flattering praises from oblivion save, The rich, and splendour decorates the grave, Let this plain stone, O Harrison, proclaim Thy humble fortune and thy honest fame. In work unwearied, labour knew no end-- In all things faithful, everywhere a friend; Herself forgot, she toiled with generous zeal, And knew no interest but her master's weal. 'Midst the rude storms that shook his ev'ning day, No wealth could bribe her, and no power dismay; Her patrons' love she dwelt on e'en in death, And dying, blest them with her latest breath. She departed this life June 19, 1797. Aged 50 years. Farewell, thou best of servants--may the tear That sorrow trickled o'er thy parting bier, Prove to thy happy shade our fond regard, And all thy virtues find their full reward. * * * * * *** Mr. Warwick, on the Ostrich, in our next. * * * * * _Printed and published by J.
