Died in Jones County on Sunday the eleventh inst., Mrs. Mary Brown, the
amiable wife of Isaac Brown, Esq. In the death of this excellent woman, female
society has lost one of its brightest ornaments, the neighborhood a dear
friend & her weeping relations are left to mourn their irreparable loss.
Possessed of all those amiable qualities that adorn and beautify the female
sex, she was excelled by none, in the practical exercise of piety, virtue &
benevolence. A mild, meek and humble devotion to the doctrines and principles
of the holy religion of the Lamb of God, at all times characterised her
conduct and conversation; and we trust and believe that her immortal spirit,
which but a few days since was confined within the frail tabernacle of
mortality, and agonized by death and disease, has not "winged its flight, on
pinions of love," to the mansions of etherial bliss; and is now in the full
fruition of all the joys of heaven, which are prepared for the faithful
follwers of the blessed Jesus where "the wicked cease from troubling and the
weary are at rest."
