OBITUARY
CARRIE AMELIA, only Daughter of Erasmus J. and Albina C. Dozier died in Jacksen 
County, Fla. Oct 20, 1856, aged 2 years, 5 months, and twenty days.
HEATIE (for this was her pet name) was a remarkable child for spritliness, 
beauty, kindness, and affectionate disposition. She was fondly loved by her 
parents, and petted by her relations. On Saturday night before her death, she 
was seized with fever, but rose Sunday morning and passed the day without 
complaining. In the evening her Mother proposed to ride her out, as she feared 
that Heatie did not feel well; the carriage was ordered, and she rode some six 
miles, in company with her Parents and little Brother; on returning, she sat at 
the table and ate her supper as usual, after which she was prepared for bed and 
slept quietly until between 9 and 10 o'clock. On examination her fever was 
found to be increasing rapidly, and at 12 o'clock she was in convulsions, which 
lasted her until 8 o'clock the next morning, when she breathed her last.
"O Death, Thou hast All Seasons for thine own."
