Troy Times
September 11, 1851
HART, MRS. MARY H. - In Piqua, on Saturday, 6th inst., Mrs. Mary H., wife of Jas. H. Hart, and daughter of Benj. F. Powers, Esq., of Troy, O. Heaven, by this dispensation has bereft a (line in filmstrip) of an affectionate mother, doting parents of an amiable daughter, and society of one of its most accomplished ornaments. Cruel, indeed, has been the Fel Destroyer, to so soon cut down another in a family circle already deeply bereaved by a like dispensation, that has stripped it of an amiable son and brother, who but a few days ago moved among us in the pride of life and vigor of manhood. "Heaven alone can minister a balm that in such wounds will drop healing." "The good and lovely are not long on earth," and "Those whom Heaven most approves are soonest called away."
