Departed this life the evening of the 7th inst. at the residence of Richard Bearden, her son-in-law, Mrs. Ann Bennett in the 93rd year of her age. The deceased was born in Virginia in 1753 and having married Major Peter Bennett, an officer in the Revolutionary struggle, removed to North Carolina at the close of the war and from thence, in the year 1802, to this county. She was amiable in her disposition and strictly moral in her demeanor. For many years she was a member of the Presbyterian Church, during these years she endeavored to live in conformity to the mandates of the Bible, and died in the hope of receiving that reward which is promised to the faithful. She lived to see the 5th generation growing up around her and went down to the grave at the advanced age, leaving a numerous connection to cherish her virtues and imitate her example.
