The subject of this notice was born in Exeter, Otsego Co., N.Y. where she remained with her father's (Gurshum Palmer) family until her marriage, forty-one years ago. whence she removed to Trumansburg, Tompkins Co., afterwards attending her husband in his different places of labor as a Christian Minister, in Central and Western New York.
She wrought with great patience and always delighted in rendering aid to the needy. Her hope was unfaultering; her faith in Christ unshaken to the last; her death was as when one falls asleep to take rest.
"Calm on the bosom of thy God,
Fair spirit! rest thee now!
E'en while with us thy footsteps trod,
His seal was on thy brow.
Dust to the narrow home beneath!
Soul to its place on high!
They that have seen thy look in death,
Nor more may fear to die."
-The Cortland Democrat, April 10, 1868
