Died in this town, on Thursday the 15th inst. aged 92 years, MRS. HUGHES, relict of the late MR. SAMUEL HUGHES of Milford, near Ramelton [Co. Donegal]. We have reason to say, this pious handmaiden of the Lord, died in the Faith, leaving a testimony of a pious devotedness to God, and her interest in Christ, and is now arrived in that Land of pure delight, where the wicked cease from troubling, and the wearied are at rest

Died on Friday last, MRS. HUGHES, wife of MR. MICHAEL HUGHES of this town

April 1 1828

Died on the 27th instant, MISS ANNE JANE HUGHES, eldest daughter of MR. HUGHES of this town. As far as the character of a child of her years may be said to be developed, we have seldom witnessed such amiability of disposition. That parents should feel and deplore such a loss is natural; but the deep distress of her youthful acquaintances who followed her remains with tears to the grave, gave ample testimony that she had excited interest in a much wider field

February 8, 1831

Died at his father’s house in this town, on the 1st instant, after a lingering illness, which he bore with christian resignation, ROBERT, eldest son of MR. SAMUEL HUGHES, Merchant, aged 21 years. To sum up his many virtues in a few words, suffice it to say, that he was a most dutiful son, an affectionate brother, a warm hearted and steady friend, and a kind benefactor to the poor ---

His disconsolate parents are much consoled with the hope, that as he lived a life of faith on his Redeemer he is now enjoying that “rest which remaineth for the people of God.’ The very numerous assemblage of persons of all ranks, who accompanied his remains to the grave, plainly evinced the high esteem in which this much lamented youth was held
