DIED,
At Tyringham, on the first instant, Mrs. Huldah Sweet, wife of Capt. Riley Sweet, aged 20 years. Through a long and tedious sickness, by her fortitude and christian resignation she fully evinced this truth. "The Infidel may die in a state of insensibility, the Philosopher submit to his fate in silence, the Hero rush thoughtlessly into eternity; but the Christian conquers as he falls, and proves a victor in the arms of death." Communicated.
