Daughter of Col. Richard Fenner and Sarah Manchester

age 19 years 8 months 8 days

The wintery blast of death kills not the buds of virtue.
The pains of a lingering consumption she bore with astonishing fortitude. In the last struggles of nature she begged her friends not to weep for her but "rather to parental nature pay the tears of grateful joy."
If aught there is beyond this world of pain, know that Eliza has not lived in vain.
