Mrs McLean in religion was a Presbyâ€" terian, and seldom was her seat empty in the sanctuary when opportunity alâ€" lowed her to be there. Skhe was always thankful with swaall mercies, for although the language that was dear to her heart, the gaelic, coased to be preached every Sabbath of late years, she was always thankful to be privileged to hear it monthly or seimi monthly as the case micht be. of the yeterans ot Glenelg, who have passed away inside of one week.
