Vol. 7. #43.  Thursday Morning, 23 Oct. 1873:

Mrs. Elizabeth Phillips, age 84, died on the 23 day of September last.  Her 
days upon earth had been mmany, and she seemed to enjoy them as well in her 
old age as when in the springtime of lie.  We saw her last summer at a picnic 
with young people, and none appeared more joyful than this lady of many 
years.  We set a request to her son, Mr. J. A. J. Phillips, of Hartford, for a 
few incidents and facts connected with her life and received the following:  
Mrs. Elizabeth Phillips, daughter of Col. John Nicholson, of Edgecombe County, 
North Carolina, was born 26 Feb 1790; married to Mathew Phillips, 27 Feb. 
1812; left a widow with three small children 23 Oct 1823.  She never 
contracted a second marriage, but for half a century devoted her whole 
affection and energies o the comfort and interest of the offspring of her 
first love.  In this work of love she received encouragement and many favors 
from the Masonic fraternity, of which institution her husband was an honored 
member.  She died  23 Sept. 1873
