On the first of March last, the deceased was stricken down with paralysis, since when; until death ended her sufferings, she has lain upon a bed from which her relatives and friends knew she would never arise. Through her long life she had been a true Christian woman, and for many years a devoted mother to her fatherless children. Mrs. Allen had many relatives and friends in this county. She was the sister of R.J. Davis who lives a few miles south of town. She emigrated to this county in 1829 with her father, Matthew Davis, who settled on the farm south of town, known as the Collier Farm.
