DEATHS
On Tuesday, the 23d ult., at New York, Mrs. Marion Woodrow, wife of the Rev. Thomas Woodrow, late of Carlisle, England. Mr. Woodrow arrived in this city but a few weeks since with his family, consisting of his lady, her sister, and seven young children. Hearing of a vacant church, in Dutchness City, Mr. W. repaired thither three weeks ago, leaving his wife and family well. She was taken ill soon after his departure, and died suddenly in a land of strangers, on the night above mentioned, surrounded only by her sister and children. The affectionate husband was only apprized of his bereavement when he entered the house on his return -- just in season to attend her remains to the house for all living. -- New York Paper
