Deaths.

At Hollidaysburg, Pa., on the 19th ult., Mrs. Joanna, wife of Merrick
Sawyer, esq., & daughter of Asa Boyden, esq., of Dummerston, aged 22
years.  As a companion she was amiable and interesting; as a friend,
sincere and constant, and as a wife and daughter, faithful and
affectionate.  She possessed those qualities which render the lovely
female endearing to her friends and useful to society.  In her early
death her friends have sustained an irreparable loss, but we mourn not
as those who are without hope.  Our religion mitigates our sorrows,
and points to brighter worlds. - Com. 

Brattleboro Messenger, Brattleboro, Vermont, May 12, 1832
