"Died - on the 29th of May, at Mrs. Mary Mosby's after a short illness of six days, Mrs. Jane P. Mosby, relict of Wm. O. Mosby, decd. and daughter of Captain Philip Woodson, of the County of Hanover. The friends of the deceased are not left without hope in her death. Two days before she died, she expressed her love to the Savior, and said, notwithstanding she had so long abused his mercy, and resisted the strivings of the Holy Spirit yet the blessed Jesus had still pursued her, and had, at last, filled her soul with love, and joy, and peace, in believing. The second night before her death, she rejoiced nearly the whole night and would frequently break out in hymns of praise to her blessed Savior. She spoke much of the emptiness and vanity of earthly things, and said her only trust was in the Lord Jesus." June 9, 1835.
