DIED.
Died at her home in Magnolia, Miss., on the morning of the 13th inst., Mrs. HANNAH MCNAIR, the beloved wife of Gen. McNair, of that that place. She was born in the State of New York, and had lived through her fiftieth year. For ten or a dozen years previous to her marriage with Gen. McNair, she resided in this city (Jackson) where she had many dear and true friends to whom the sad tidings of her death are deeply painful.
Mrs. McNair was a lady whose character was adorned by many rare and excellent virtues. To a mind highly cultivated, she added strength and energy of character; and these, combined with the gentleness of
a true woman, and, with strict integrity of purpose, made her successful in her undertakings.
She was a christian of deep and unfeigned piety. For many years she was a member of the Presbyterian church, and a consistent follower of her Divine Lord. In every relation of life, the virtues of her religion shone forth in her daily walk. She was a most loving wife and mother, a kind neighbor, a most true and earnest friend. How hard to estimate the loss of such a christian woman such a wife and mother, to the dear ones whom she has left behind! To them, in their sad bereavement, we tender our heartfelt sympathies.
