              Obituary - This community was suddenly shocked
            by the unlooked for death of MRS. KITCHEN, wife
            of CHAS. KITCHEN, Esq., who died at her residence
            on Thursday last, the 28th inst. Her health had
            been declining for some weeks; but she was not
            supposed in danger until the day before her de-
            cease.
              MRS. CHARLOTTE KITCHEN was a native of Germany,
            born at Shoresberg, Kingdom of Wirtemburg, on 
            the 25th of August, 1841. Came out to this coun-
            try in 1848 to join her brothers and sisters, of
            the BREUNINGER family, who had preceeded her a
            few years. She was married to CHAS. KITCHEN, Esq.,
            on the 9th of October, 1849, having lived in our
            city 28 years, and being at her death, in the
            53rd year of her age.
              Of retiring and unobtrusive manners, her 
            truly excellent character was known only to
            her near acquaintances. It was in her home,
            around the family alter, that her virtues were
            chiefly resplendant; and to those who really 
            knew her, did she appear at all times and
            under all circumstances the faithful wife
            and patient Christian mother. Her death has
            filled her house with mourning. She leaves a
            disconsolate husband, who indeed and in 
            truth refuses to be comforted, and with him
            remain her six surviving children - two sons
            and three daughters - (one 19 years old having
            gone to her rest a year since) whose only
            consolation is the sweet memory of her vir-
            tues and her shining christian example.
            These will cherish her memory, and commend
            her instructions, while life with them shall
            last.
              Her funeral was had from Christ Church,
            on Sunday last. The immense concourse of
            people of all classes in attendance, bore
            silent, but abiding witness to the esti-
            mation in which she was held, to her real
            worth and the loss we sustain in her death.
            
            
            *Transcriber's Note: Her birth year is
             exactly as it appears in the newspaper
             and is not a typo.
