11/25/1823 COMMUNICATED

Died ---- On the afternoon of Thursday, the 6th inst. about the 27th year of her age, Mrs. Rachel Harriet Boswell, wife of Col. Hartwell Boswell, of this place, and daughter of Gen. Joseph Desha of Kentucky.

Seldom has an even occurred, more strongly calculated to spread gloom
and despondency over the little circle in which she moved, admired, and
respected by all. To a sincerity and frankness, as rare as they are estimable,
she superadded courtesy, benevolence, refinement, and intelligence. Such
she seemed to be, and such she was, to the community around her. And if
living, she shared the friendship and regards, and dying, carried with her
the deep regrets of society --- what must be the agonizing distress that
has been left into the domestic fire-side? Presumption would not aspire to
portray the pungent sorrow, the heart-rending affliction, of the most
affectionate of husbands; obduracy could not withhold its kindest condolence
from two sweetly interest girls, this in the spring-tide of live, deprived of the
advantages of maternal care, cut off from the endearments of maternal love.

With the promise of many days before her, she has been consigned, an early
victim, to the "narrow house."

But it may soothe feelings, it may soften the anguish, of the distant friends
and relatives of Mrs. B. To learn that tears of sympathy moistened her
premature grave - that retrospection will delight to dwell on her worth, and
memory will embalm the recollection of her virtues.
