Death
The death of Mrs. Hudson which took place in this village [Cherry Valley, Otsego Co. NY] on the 5th inst. is an event that will be severely felt and lamented, both by her family and her numerous friends and acquaintances. For the last fifteen years this amiable and highly respectable woman has drank deep of the cup of affliction. During that period she saw her husband and three of her children sink into the grave.
Blessed with a superior mind, mild and uniform in her temper, and possessing a soundness of judgment and discretion, far beyond what falls to the lot of the generality of her sex, she was on all occasions prepared to meet with superior firmness and dignity the checkered scenes of fortune.
On the death of her husband, which took place about fifteen years ago, she was left with a young and numerous family and at a time when that family most needed paternal care and advice.
Correctly estimating the resources of her own mind, she undertook at the same time the direction of a large agricultural estate and the education and care of her young family; results have abundantly proven the correctness of her decision and the wisdom of her measures - for while the business of the farm was conducted in a manner that would reflect credit on our best agriculturalist, the strictest care and attention to her family were in no instance neglected.
The highly respectable standing her family holds in society is the best evidence of the tender care and judicious management of the mother. The elevated character which this extraordinary woman has justly sustained through life, the wisdom, prudence, discretion and steady firmness, which she evinced on all occasions, will long endear her memory to her family and all that knew her.
Perhaps no one understood better what constituted the duties of hospitality, benevolence and true charity. Blessed with a large property, the nice discrimination she evinced in selecting the objects of her charity, will remain a lasting proof of the soundness of her judgment and the strength of her mind.
Superior to impassioned and vulgar frenzy, her firm, steady and uniform walks in the paths of morality, virtue and practical religion, stood pre-eminently conspicuous in all the transactions of her life. Without ostentation, show, or vain boasting, she was moral, virtuous and understandingly religious.
