Jackson Press, Bellevue, Jackson County, Iowa, May 4, 1853.

DIED-

On the 2nd inst., after a sickness of two weeks, Mrs. Comfort K. Rice, in the 37th year of her age, consort of Mr. Thomas H. Rice of Bellevue.

For about 17 years, Mrs. Rice has cherished a hope in Christ and during a painful sickness, found it as an anchor to the soul, sure and steadfast. An interesting group of children are left to mourn with their father the great loss-a loss which a large circle will feel. Yet we trust it is her eternal gain.
