Obituary
Died. In this village, on Thursday, the 15th inst. Mrs. Armesta A. consort of Doct. J. B. Moffatt, aged 25 years, 1 month, and 1 day. In the death of Mrs Moffatt, this community is deprived of one of its brightest ornaments, a large circle of relatives and intimate friends of an affable and kind-hearted associate, who was ever ready to sacrifice personal enjoyments upon the altar of friendship when the comfort of others required it, and a husband of a tender, devoted and affectionate companion. By a short residence in this place she had endeared herself to all who had enjoyed the pleasure of her acquaintance, and her decease has spread a gloom over society that time only can efface. In the spring time of life she has been gathered to the fold of the great Shepherd, to enjoy the reward of a virtuous and exemplary life.
