B. Whitfield in the village of Seven Springs, Wayne County after an illness of two weeks, Mrs. Mary Lee Uzzell, wife of O. K. Uzzell, Esq., and daughter of Col. G. W. Stanton, of Wilson County, in the 21st year of her age. But a few months ago, she came among us a blooming bride. Alas' death claimed her as his victim and she has passed that bourne whence no poor traveler returns; and although she died away from the home of her childhood, so recently given up, there were those who loth to part with one so kind and lovable, did all in their power to palliate her sufferings and render her as comfortable as circumstances would permit. Accomplished and refined, and endowed with a kind heart, generous spirit and pleasing manners, she won many friends. It was her constant aim to render happy all who enjoyed her society, and none knew her but to love her. Her death has cast a gloom over this entire community. We have an assurance that she is where "Sickness and sorrow, pain and death are felt and feared no more." She leaves an affectionate husband and father and a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn their irreparable loss. May He who "tempers the wind to the shorn lamb" comfort, and sustain, and sanctify this sad affliction to the eternal good of all who mourn.
