E.T.

Thur 28 1773: I buried the remains of poor E. T., of whom, ever since she died, her husband speaks as a most excellent woman, and a most affectionate wife! I have known many such instances: Many couples, who while they lived together spoke of each other as mere sinners; but as soon as either was dead, the survivor spake of the deceased as the best creature in the world.
