Death
In this village [Cherry Valley, Otsego Co. NY] on the 16th inst. Mr. Catherine Holt aged 78 years, widow of the late Col. Holt of this place. She was the mother of thirteen children. Her last sickness, which was short, was the only serious illness of her life. Distinguished as she was for health, she was scarcely less so for mental vigor. To the close of life, she maintained habits of reading and with deep interest, perused able works in poetry, history and other branches of literature. Many years ago, she professed faith in the redeemer and united with the Presbyterian Church. She has fallen in her strength, though aged, leaving few of the associates of her youth to survive her and those few will soon follow her.
