CAVETT, RUTH. Died in this county, on the 5th inst., in the 77th year of her age, Mrs. Ruth Cavett, wife of the venerable Richard Cavett, a patriot of the Revolution. Mrs. Cavett was for 54 years a professor of religion, and for the past 20 years attached to the Baptist Church. She was the mother of eleven children, who with their offspring, deeply lament the death of one whom they so much loved indeed, her loss is greatly lamented by her neighbors and all who knew her, and doubly so by the partner of her bosom.—Huntsville, The Democrat, December 14, 1843.
