THE RICHMOND ENQUIRER, Richmond, VA
Saturday, June 7, 1845
Departed this life, at her residence, in Fredericksburg, on Tuesday, the 3d instant, after a protracted illness, in the 57th year of her age, Mrs. SUSAN PEARSON SEDDON, daughter of William Alexander, deceased, formerly of Snowden, Stafford county, and widow of Thomas Seddon, deceased, late of this town.
In this community, and with all who knew her, the unpretending excellencies of Mrs. Seddon's character need not even this passing tribute.--She lived esteemed and beloved, and she had died lamented and revered. As wife, mother, friend and neighbor, she filled with rare perfection the best offices of woman, and illustrated most beneficently the wisdom of virtue, the beauty of holiness--a christian in whom there was no guile--eminently pure in heart, and meek in spirit--richly endowed with the gentle graces and tender charities of our holy religion. She passed from the cares and suffering of life, to rest in eternal peace on the bosom of her God.
Long be her memory cherished, and her virtues venerated.
