BRIGHTON.
Mrs. Martha, wife of John Bennet, died last Friday night, of congestion of the stomach. Though in feeble health for a number of years she has kept up remarkably well until the attack, which she said would be her last sickness. She was patient under her trials and a kind Christian woman. She leaves a large family of children, with relatives and friends to mourn her loss. The funeral took place Monday at the Baptist church, of which she has been a consistent member for many years.
