R. SUTHERLAND of Wake County, in the 30th year of her age, MRS. ELIZABETH LEWIS, his eldest daughter. With her husband and two little children, she had arrived here early in September to visit her highly respectable surviving parent, but unfortunately was soon after seized with a malignant bilious fever, terminating in a violent consumption of the lungs which put an end to her existence on the 23rd instant. Within three melancholy months, the dart of death has been thrice extended to strike some object of [her father's] dearest affections. First his lady, then his eldest son, and now a daughter enriched with the sweetest disposition and dignified with every virtue.
