    She had been in delicate health for some years, was riding out for her health with Mr. Putnam, in a chaise, when seeing some useful herbs at the roadside, she requested her husband to step out and get them for her, and, while he was gathering them, the horse started on, and one wheel passing over a large stone tipped the chaise so far up that she fell out the other side, and so greatly was she injured by the fall, in her feeble state of health, that she died in about three hours after although medical attention was immediatley obtained; she had been pious from her early youth, and her conduct had beem very exemplary and almost blameless; she was beloved by all her acquaintences, and by her appreciation of her many advantages for information, and development of her mind, she had become a lady of "distinguished endowments."
