. See also The obituary of Jane (Wallace) Morrill reads, “In Goffstown, 14th inst., Mrs. Jane Morrill, consort of the Hon. David L. Morrill, aged 53. A lady whose unobtrusive manners, amiable and excellent disposition had endeared her to all her acquaintenance. Hers was the spirit of the genuine Christian, delighting to feed the hungry, and clothe the naked and destitute, and administer sweet consolation to the afflicted; that spirit has too soon for the world, but not too soon for itself, winged its flight to the bright abodes of the faithful.”
