Died, on Saturday the 18th inst Miss
MARY ANN, daughter OF Capt Levi Hen
shaw. in the 29th year Of her age.
This excellent female whose early death
Is a subject of regret to all who knew her,
at all early period of her life embraced re.
ligion and connected herself with the f
piscopalian Church, and, ever afterwards,
manifested 10 peculiar degree, that chris
tan trait of character which wishes and
strives TO make all happy who come with
in the sphere Of its influence, Her exem.
plary department and amiable disposition
secured TO her large share OF the warm.
est affection of her acquaintance. With
her intimate friends she was always can.
did, open, and warm hearted. She was
remarkably healty until within few years
of her decease. when her health was i'm.
paired by a severe attack of ague and fe-
yer which brought on lingering disease,
under which she suffered with great for
titude, and which gathered additional
strength from every slight exposure TO
cold or wet until the middle of last month
when her disease assumed an alarming as.
pect bidding defiance TO the skill of the
most distinguished physicians of the
neighborhood. AT length having been
confined to her bed for the tedious space
of 80 days. the garment of mortality fell
easily off. She underwent no violent strug-
gle. Her spirit was released from its ear
thly prison, and winged lis way TO those
mansions Of rest prepared for those, who,
while on earth walked in the ways OF him
who was meek and lowly in heart, and
who laid down his life to secure the saliva
tion of fallen man, In all her Affections
she manifested that heavenly calmness Of
temper, and perfect resignation TO the
will Of her Saviour, which eharacterizes
the true child Of God. During her last
illness she frequently expressed willing
ness to die. Not the slightest fear OF death
was apparent to those who surrounded
her dying bed. She left an aged father
and mother, with large family Of BROTH
ers and sisters to lament their loss. yet
not to mourn as those who have no hope
Her funeral was attended by large con
course of friends. whose silent and orderly
conduct indicated the sorrow Of their
hearts.
