"Mrs. Elizabeth Exton wife of the late Adam Exton, died Thursday in Philadelphia, where she had gone for treatment under Dr. Goodell. For a short time she improved encouragingly, but Bright's disease developing, proved fatal. Mrs. Exton led a quiet life, being devoted to her home and children, but her interests were broad and influential. Mrs. Exton was the daughter of Henry and
Ann Aspden and niece of John and Joseph Whittaker, old and highly respected citizens of Trenton. She leaves five daughters, four of whom are married, as follows: Mrs. Charles Y. Bamford, Mrs. William H. Brokaw, Mrs. Wesley C. Owens and Mrs. Benjamin [sic] H. Bainbridge. The latter lives in Philadelphia, where the mother was visiting when she died.
