Wife of E. P. Asay, a lay preacher of the M. E. Church, died at the residence of her son-in-law, Mr. Charles Emmons, in Freehold, on Thursday last, in the 62d year of her age. She was bora Nov. 3, 1817, near Lower Squankum in Howell towuship. Her father, Daniel Vannote, was a farmer. Both her father and mother (Hannah Burdge) were awong the early Methodists of that neighberbood.
At the age of 19 she was converted under the ministry of Rev. Thomas S. Steweart, one of the pioueer preachers, who at that time preached at Upper Squankum (now Farmingdale). She remained in the communion of the Church, faithful to all her christian obligations to the last, and died in full hope of a blissful immortality.
Her funeral took place on Saturday last and was attended by a large circle of sorrowing relations, mostly children and grand-children of the deceased, who had assembled from distant places to pay the last tribute of respect and affection to the remains of their honored relative. Services were held in the M.E. Church, on which occaision the Pastor, Rev. S. F. WHEELER, delivered an impressive discourse from Job, xiv-14.
