Deaths

JORDAN, JULIET  On February 17, Mrs. Juliet Jordan, in the ?0year 
of her age, wife of Benjamin F. Jordan.

JORDAN, ELIZA  (note: In one part of paper first name given as Juliet, 
in another it is given as Eliza.)  Death of a Highly Esteemed Lady.  
As heretofore announced the estimable wife of ex-County Commissioner 
Benjamin F. Jordan, died at the residence of her husband, in the 7th 
district, on the 17th ult.  A correspondent says: “It is with feelings 
of respect and sympathy, mingled with sorrow, that we record the death 
of Eliza, beloved wife of B. F. Jordan, who after months of patient 
suffering, quietly breathed her last on Wednesday, 17th.  The family 
circle is broken, a loved one is gone, the husband and father as he 
enters his abode will miss a familiar face, the partner of his joys 
and sorrows has left him to continue alone life’s wearisome journey.  
The children as they pass from room to room will feel, as they notice 
things that belonged to mother, that she is no longer there to give 
them counsel and advice.  Her accustomed chair is empty, and, as they 
glance at it they each with feelings of sorrow will say to themselves, 
‘It was mother’s,’ and as they lay away articles for mementoes to be 
kept by them for long years to come, they will do so with feelings of 
the most profound respect and sorrow, for mother is not here to care 
for them now.  Her mission is ended.  Nobly and well has she fulfilled 
it, leaving behind her as an example of a well spent life.  As a wife 
and mother she was quiet and unassuming, loving and beloved by a large 
circle of friends.  The sorrowing ones have our heartfelt sympathies 
in their bereavement.”
