Bell, Esq., near this place, aged about 55 years. Mrs. Bell, although called away very suddenly from this world, being taken with apoplexy at 10 o'clock A. M., and expired a 8 o'clock in the evening, remaining unconscious the entire time, has left us, we believe, the blessed assurance by her christian walk and conversation that she was fully prepared for her departure, and died in full hope of a blessed immortality beyond the grave. She was an exemplary Christian, a devoted wife, a loving mother, and an amiable and kind friend. She has left many warm friends and relatives to mourn her departure, but our loss is her eternal gain.
