Murrell formerly the widow of Captain Henry Garnett of Rickerback, King and Queen, and mother of Muscoe Garnett, Esq. of Essex, Virginia. This announcement will carry the memories of the few remaining contemporaries of Mrs. Murrell far back into the past and will bring to mind scenes long forgotten. Alas, how few, how very few of the companions of her early life remain. To the few it will be a gratification to know that having passed beyond her threescore and ten years, she was prepared for the summons, and went peacefully into that great hereafter to which all are so rapidly hastening, and for which may we all be prepared. Enquirer, Examiner, and Religious Herald please copy."
