Norfolk Virginian, July 5, 1877
Departed this life in this city, at the residence of her son-in-law, Mr. H. F. 
Brown, on Saturday, June 30th, at 10 A.M., after a brief but painful illness of 
paralysis of the brain, Cynthia O., relict of the late Francis H. Brown, and 
daughter of the late Archibald Rose, of Revolutionary fame, aged 62 years and 4 
months. Her affliction, though of the severest character, was borne without a 
murmur and with a resignation truly remarkable, sustained as she was by the 
consolations of religion, which as an antidote, both sure and steadfast, clung 
to her when all else of hope of an earthly character had utterly failed. It was 
this that enabled her amid the convulsions of expiring nature to rejoice and 
give assurance that a "far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory" awaited 
her in that bright land beyond the stormy sea of sublunary life. She has 
crossed the flood and passed over into the happy state of disembodied spirits 
to await the general resurrection morn, when soul and body, reunited, shall enter in
through the gates of the New Jerusalem to enjoy the full fruition of Heaven. May
those of her kindred whom she has left 
enter in through the gates of the New Jerusalem to enjoy the full fruition of 
Heaven. May those of her kindred whom she has left behind so live that it may 
at last be said of them, Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord."
