Excerpt from A Discourse: Delivered in Greensborough, Georgia, on the Death of Mrs. Henrietta M. Dawson (Wife of the Hon. Wm, C. Dawson, ) Who Died at Washington City, April 7, 1850 Endowed with an intellect naturally strong, an exquisite sense of propriety, and an attractive sweetness of temper and manners, she was at once the charm and ornament of every circle in which she moved; and all her endowments were hallowed and borrowed lustre from her sincere and ardent piety, and were consecrated to the service of God. There was about her an unaffected artlessness and simple dignity of manner which won the respect and esteem of all with whom she associated.
