Died.
In Allamakee county on Saturday, the 13th day of May, Mrs. Sarah Topliff, consort of Hon. Elias Topliff, of said county, in the 48th year of her age.

~Garnavillo Herald - May 26, 1854
Garnavillo, Clayton co. Iowa

~Transcribers note: According to the 1913 biography of her grandson, Ray F. Topliff, her maiden name was Woodworth & she died May 4th, 1854. The death date in the newspaper is likely more accurate. I checked a calendar website & May 13, 1854 was indeed a Saturday.
