ReSOlpsd, That II is with the deepest sorrow
we hear of the death OF our sister, and by this
dispensation of Divine Providence, q tie which
binds us to the past is broken. She was beloved
by all who knew her, and we grieve for her as
one who is a great loss, and which cannot be

was unblemished, and she bid fair to attain to
that position in life which she was 80 we'll
qualified to occupy.

pathy to the bOreaVed family, and sincerely
hope that they may be sustained in their great
trial.

in Wilmington prior to 8 A. NJ, will be delivered
in Philadelphia or forwarded to other points the
same day and II received in Philadelphia before

the next morning. This will be quite convenient
for parties buying in Philadelphia, or shipping
to any point.
