Her best efforts date irom this happy event. Under the ausvices of the New York so- rosis she delivered ® lecture om “Womanhood,” and, also in this city, another on “Houses aud Homes.” For some time she travelled trough the country delivering lectures on these and kindred subjects. In 1872 she received @ cull to the pastorate of the Unitarian church in Brooklyn, Conn., previously presiaed over by sainuel D. May. A year beiore her hus- band had died in Brooklyn. His death was a great blow to ner and one from which she never fully recovered, In 1872 she collected her hus- band’s poenis and puollshed them with a intro- duction under her own name. ‘lwo years ago she gave up her pastorate on eccount of jailing healtn and O28 since been in charge o! a devoted friend, Miss Hubbard, at Syracuse. Mrs. Burleigh was the sounder of the Brooklyn Woman’s Club and Vice President of the Sorosis. Her demise will eXcite keen regret among a wide circle of trends, RIGHT REY. CONNOP THIRLWALL, D.
