Excerpt: ...which bury every hope of the survivor in the relentless grave, the heart that can delude itself with thebelief that his prayers may avail any thing to the departed object of its affections, must find consociation in thus uniting a tribute of tenderness, with the performance of a religious duty. We have been at several convents at Rouen. The sirst to which we went was a convent ofBenedictine Nuns.
