Departed this life, on the 7th of August last, of pulmonary consumption, Mrs. Juditha Ligon, consort of James Ligon, and daughter of the late Col. W. Bentley - and on the 2nd day afterwards, her infant daughter, Sarah, leaving a discolate husband and four little daughters to be moan their irreperable loss. At the time of Mrs. Ligon's death, a second daughter was expected every moment to breathe her last, and preparation was made to buy her with her mother; but it has pleased God to spare her, and she is now just recovering from her tedious indisposition.
