Wells, and daughter of James Packer, aged 19 years.  The friends and relatives of the deceased will long lament their inestimable loss.  She possessed an amiable disposition, always manifesting evidence of sincere thanks to God in health, a perfect example of Christian fortitude in sickness, and an entire resignation to her Maker's will in her last illness.  At thirteen years of age, having been bereft of an affectionate mother, she took upon herself the maternal care of her Father's family, consisting of three brothers elder and one brother and four sisters younger than herself.  At the age of seventeen, she became a member of the Baptist church, and has ever adorned her profession by an exemplary life fit for any or for all to follow. At nineteen she was untied to Mr. Wells by the marriage tie which happy union was permitted by Providence to last but five weeks, when she was called from this world, leaving a disconsolate husband, affectionate parents and eight brothers and sisters to lament their loss.  [Apr. 17, 1833]

[May 22, 1833]
